Master Of Animation, Games & Interactivity

Reflection:

During this week, We studied the role of the scene. How to use the scene to express the particularity of the role and the impact of the scene on the role. The scene can show the character's situation. At the same time, it can also show the specials of the protagonist.

In my story, I should use environmental descriptions to highlight that the protagonist is not a human. For example, the roads to the zoo are very wide, or the protagonist wears a human bone necklace.   

This is my reference work. In this work, the Animator(I don't know his/her name) uses a lot of environmental descriptions to metaphor the protagonist's environment. Such as bloody shoes and trains that don't know where to go. All these indicate that the protagonist is on the verge of death.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HclzkQznge4

The unusually large zoo highlights the strange atmosphere. Why are there human doll toys in the zoo? Why animals don't eat rice, but the zoo sells rice balls? All these point to that humans appear in zoos as animals.

Story:

"If the tiger gets out, will it eat us?"

In summer, insects are not only singing, but even the leaves are hot and curling. There are few tourists in the unusually large zoo. There is music in the souvenir shop. Dancing to the music is a simulated human doll. Small shops, even sell rice balls for feeding animals. Tigers lie in the shade from the sun. The elephant cub in a hoodie gently asked, "will the tiger eat us?". The elephant mother smiled and said: of course not. Then she looked at the human Pavilion.
