SeeMusic Tutorial: How to Create Animated Piano Videos

If you have ever wondered how to create those beautiful animated piano videos on YouTube — the ones where colourful notes move in real time with the music — you are not alone. I wanted to give my students and audience something more engaging than a static score or sheet music, so I started exploring SeeMusic. Since then, it has become one of my favourite tools for creating polished and visually engaging music content.

In this tutorial, I walk you through the process of creating a piano visualizer video using SeeMusic. Whether you are a music educator, content creator, pianist, or musician looking for a more professional way to showcase your playing, this tool is an excellent option.

In the video, I show you how to:

  • record directly in the SeeMusic app
  • customize colours, particle effects, and keyboard layout
  • sync the visualizer with your performance
