The Great Final in the Sky

    Normally I would use an album closer, but I couldn't find one that I could make a good pun with. The Great Gig in the Sky technically closes side A of The Dark Side of the Moon, so it's technically a closer.
    It feels weird that this is finally coming to an end. This kinda feels like the end of school, except this was just a long project that I worked on for about 8 weeks. I had so many other ideas that I wanted to do, like one about a gamer. Maybe I can do that next year for A level! 
    I wanted to include more clone scenes and have them be a more integral part of the opening, but I didn't have enough time to include it. I also felt like I made the completely wrong genre of music and had to change some of the sounds. Originally, I was making an almost ambient/garage song, but that wouldn't make sense and would be weird to play. So at almost the last minute, I changed the song to be more like a traditional EDM song you would hear today. I also wanted to incorporate music in the ending, but I wasn't sure how to, so I just left it alone. I really like the match cut transition I did with sound. I took some inspiration of that from the Breaking Bad "Blood to Ketchup" transition. Instead of the swirling of a mop and a fry, I used the door closing and William knocking on my window. 
    This was a really fun project! I can't wait to see what comes at A level!
