The Life of a Leaf


My narrative is about a leaf's short life. I got the idea from my roommate and I took it in a more serious direction. In some ways it parallels human life. Our life seems so short and death is inevitable but necessary for life to go on. They leaf starts out as a bud  and grows bigger and older until it falls to the ground. As the seasons change and it gets colder the music builds. It builds up to the spring when a new bud arrives in his place. I linked it with an instrumental version of the song called Sort Of by Ingrid Michaelson. I like the upbeat tune of the song for the beginning because it shows how happy life is. In the end it gets more slow which changes the tone to be a bit more serious. I think the music invokes emotions that the video wouldn't alone.
