    uniE613 Trilight Music Project
    Trilight Music Festival is an introduction of three virtual music groups, named heaven's anvil, Prinsensation!!, and Saturn's Star, via animated music videos. Each video highlights one group and their unique style and aesthetic through the music and graphics that are presented. The project includes two songs from other independent artists, Melancholiaah! and Criminal Code, as well as an original composition, produced by kiraku. The festival starts with a story about continuing to fight and never losing hope, then the excitement builds with the upbeat second song as the members of Prinsensation!! portray a love story, and finally we reach a calm but satisfying end of finding support in your friends and being able to reach for the stars together. Approximately four weeks were dedicated to each video, with most of the music prepared beforehand. This project was completed in December 2022. https://youtu.be/F7hlJg1ST54?si=Wk-WnpFFgMp1czqN https://youtu.be/3rPvtTZAqj8?si=hu5OyTELIFtXfxZm https://youtu.be/gNPWh148sIs?si=E7cIsg35l85g9-bl…
