This semester I want to do a short 2d animation. The story is from Borges' novel, The Garden of Forking Paths, a philosophical work.
My animation story is based on the main line of the novel: It tells the story of the Yu Zhun, who was a spy for Germany in the United Kingdom during the First World War, when his companion was arrested and he would be hunted down. In order to inform the German boss of important information, he did not hesitate to kill the sinologist Albert.
The concept is transition and loop. My inspiration is the transition of scenes in satoshi kon's movie. Then, in the Japanese Anime Future Diary and When Umineko Cries, the plot is promoted like a novel plot, initial time.
My methods are using AI and Ps to draw backgrounds and characters, and AE and An are used to make animations.
