James Coviello

James is a senior design major at Mason Gross School of the Arts, who is also pursuing a minor in music technology. He was initailly attracted to design because of its strong ties to music. He first experimented with reimaginning album artwork in middle school, about the same time he starting learning guitar. Since then James has progressed in both the design and music fields to produce a thesis project that fuses both of his passions seamlessly. James' thesis project is an original song that he wrote and recorded about loving yourself. James played every single instrument on the song to show the power of what you can do alone. The project also incorporates an animated lyric video, sequenced light show, and lyric sculptures.
