This project intends to be an inquisitive journey into the interpretation of growth. Using a classical music piece as primary direction, the work delves into growth's multitudinous aspects and representations. Three main themes stood as pillars of the project, namely, order, chaos and change. Music was chosen to be the primary driver of the film, due to its existence as a figurative form of growth itself. Visuals and sound intertwine to reinforce each other and propel the work forward. The progression of the project culminates in a narrative for the viewer. In designing this film, it has come to understanding that imagery and audio are almost entirely interdependent on each other for the progression of a story. As such, image and sound should be given equal weightage in suggesting the progress of the film, taking turns to drive each other forward.
