So close to finished! I have one "scene" left. I have just knocked off Gregor's head with a clipart apple. Once his head rejoins the rest of himself and the apple rolls away, a violin will begin playing, just as it does in the book. (In the book, Gregor is also seriously wounded by an apple tossed from his father, though it lodges in his back and not his face).
Gregor's sister's violin playing precedes Gregor death the next day. The music has a profound impact on him, and is perhaps the culmination of of his new-found humanity within his cockroach body. No way could I leave out this important theme! The apple was mostly for fun--that's my favorite part of the video so far--but this is for symbolic significance.
