For my project on the Black Death, I aimed to create a haunting music video that captured the dark, eerie atmosphere of one of history’s deadliest plagues. I envisioned a folk-rock fusion sound paired with cryptic visuals to convey the somber mood that swept through Europe during this devastating period.

  1. Script and Lyric Development: To craft lyrics that suited the folk-rock genre and conveyed the gravity of the Black Death, I used Suno AI V3 to generate initial drafts, aligning the lyrics’ tone and style with the eerie theme. To ensure historical accuracy, I cross-referenced details with Claude AI, allowing me to refine the lyrics to encapsulate both the period’s atmosphere and historical context.
  2. Audio and Music Composition: For the musical composition, I sought a folk-rock sound that was both dark and memorable. Using Udio AI, I customized the music style to capture the historical event’s impact in a way that resonated emotionally with the theme.
  3. Image Creation: Before generating images, I consulted Suno AI V3 for assistance with prompt creation, ensuring I could capture visuals that aligned with my vision. Suno provided insightful guidance for generating image prompts that would yield the desired aesthetic. I then used Suno AI to create the images based on these prompts, followed by Luma to transform them into subtle, animated clips that conveyed movement and added depth.
  4. Editing and Assembly: Finally, I used DaVinci Resolve to synchronize the music and visuals, creating a cohesive and immersive experience that brought my vision to life.

Through a thoughtful integration of AI tools—Suno AI V3, Claude, Udio AI, Luma, and DaVinci Resolve—I successfully produced an AI-driven music video that evokes the haunting legacy of the Black Death, combining historical accuracy with atmospheric artistry.
