Indiana Jones stop motion parody

A friend of mine created a 30-second stop motion piece for the Heinz YouTube Commercial Contest. It’s a parody of the opening scene of Raiders of the Lost Ark, where Indiana Jones must escape the tomb while dodging booby traps, including a huge boulder. I parodied the Indiana Jones theme by writing a partial inversion of the melody (meaning it’s upside down). I had fun emulating the style of John Williams, and it made good practice for my upcoming project, a feature length Indiana Jones fan film, Treasure of the Templars.
