Partial Song Sequencing

[TWright]

How many of you sequence a part of a song, for example, sequence the first verse and chorus of a song then duplicate the remaining verses/chorus?

[George Simmons]

I do that once in a while, depending on the song. But I've got so many display elements to work with that I usually do different things for each verse and chorus.

[Brian Mitchell]

I will do that with some elements. It depends on the song. If the song is building with the second verse stronger than the first then the effects will be stronger than the first. I try not to repeat too much as long as I think of different patterns to try.

Then there are some songs that seem to lend themselves to a lot of repitition and to change it would interupt the theme or flow of the song.

[Philip]

pretty much almost never, but many times when I come back around on the 3rd verson I'll cut and paste chucks from one area to another from earlier in the song, especially arches, that I don't want to have to redo

[Robert G.]

Usually I just create an original animation for each part. People like things changed up a bit. But every once in a while I guess it would be ok.
