Stockpiler - The Wall (full song)

Here’s the full version of the music I did for “The Wall” animation.

For some reason the finished animation was never put online by the company who commissioned it, so here’s what it looked like, roughly:

PART ONE: THE BEGINNING

- Zoom in on a city.

- Fly through the city streets to a giant web of scaffolding.

- Zoom up the long arm of a crane, and then drop down to a large pile of yellow bricks.

PART TWO: BUILDING THE WALL

- Cranes pick up bricks, stacking them up higher and higher.

PART THREE: SOLAR VALLEY

- Camera climbs a winding stairway going up the outside of the wall.

- Camera reaches the summit and peers over the top of the wall to reveal a bright sun shining over a valley of houses below, outfitted with fields of solar panels.
