Status Update: "Desperate"

My primary project, code-name "Desperate", is about three-fourths done and near completion. It's about 2:15 long. I have twenty seconds left to work on, with the remaining time to be a simple closing with credits. I'm currently thinking about what footage I'm going to record for the last chorus.

Since this is definitely going to be completed soon, I guess it's time to get into some details. The background song is going to be "Meteor Shower" by Owl City. Yeah, Owl City. A little too mainstream, but it's probably one of the deepest songs on his album Ocean Eyes. All the shots are set on Davebrown's City 8 maps. It's about a guy who comes home to City 8 to find everyone dead from a very recent headcrab infestation, and his girlfriend is missing. The plot isn't straight-forward in the video, but it's easy to put together.

Like I said before, most of the scenes are mixed with a trance mood. The rest has a touch of depression, to match with the guy's situation in the plot.

I'm hoping I can have it out by this weekend. It depends how motivated I am to finish it these next 3-4 days.
