Visualization experiment using Alex K's Infinite City to set the scene. A simple looped video was made using OBS, brought into DaVinci Resolve and motion-tracked. Music visualizations were applied to that track.

This is just an idea I had while working on a visualization tool. The goal is to make that tool capable of exporting scenes like this with practically no work. So users could just drag in a music file and it could churn out a full video. That's the gist at least. My project BeatDown is a work in progress toward that goal.

The music visualizations here came from a combination of MIDITrail and FLStudio's ZGameEditor plugin. Them notes in the sky and the colored lights in the street are MIDI visualizations recording from MIDITrail.
FLStudio is the only non-free software used here. It comes highly recommended as a DAW and also for top tier visualizations. I bought an FLStudio license long ago before the ZGameEditor plugin existed. I continue to get crazy updates including new features like this. There are free tools that can do similar, FLStudio just rocks.
The music used here is a free template called "The New Wave" from my Treble project and initially composed using TrebleMaker.ai and MuLab (very powerful DAW).

Final note: This video loops nicely. I'll be using it as a live wallpaper.
