I draw two different style frames which reflect the different mood of her. I try to use the opposite colour tone to express deep and relax.

For me, fear and anxiety are shapeless. They like air and water can’t be controlled by my hand. This animation made fear like a little black shadow and when people feel afraid of something, the little monster will grow bigger until cover people all which I think is a really interesting idea.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w1sHAGAuceE

About the music with her. I think the audio bar is like a symbol of music. And these bars could move with the background music. And the girl sitting on the guitar( it could be other instruments) enjoying the music.

I think this girl is nearly 13-16 because she mentioned about the bullying things happened when she started secondary school. So she should be a teenager figure. And maybe I will keep the headphone with her to emphasis the different between whether she is with her music or not.

And about the characteristic, I think she is a brave girl and won’t give in. She is strong and fight with the bad mood but sometimes can’t defense it. Even was dragged into the panic and stressful situation but she will stand up and keep fighting.

When I first hear the audio of this girl I really understand her feeling although I am lucky enough not experienced these pains, I do believe that music could treat people’s broken heart. It reminds me of the song which used in a game called devotion.

This game talks about a sad story that happened to a poor girl. She is ill but her parents use some superstition methods to treat her. She was locked in the bathrooms about 10 days and die in there. I was really sad when I play this game but in the end, the song started playing and I saw the ending animation. The girl walking in the bright space and I don’t know whether it is heaven or not.

This part is really touching, especially the music. After suffering the dark story that happened before, I feel that my pressure and sadness is release by this song. It inspired me of this project. Because this girl thinks music is a kind of therapy to her. I think I should describe this story from the feeling of the character’s mind and body. There has a contrast between these two, so I want to emphasis how music cures her and the importance of her music.

About the style, I think the world of character’s mind should be described in the abstract and in opposite the real world will have many differences from the mind world.
