APE week1 play and self

When I was young, in the first class, the teacher asked us to think of a few keywords to introduce our personality traits. This allows others to remember themselves for a short time, but I was still young and did not say anything interesting and impressive. Growing up, I rethought what words could describe myself, creating a tiny two-dimensional animation through those keywords as a minor subject. And then I pieced these animations together to become a new one that can be seen, a different "self."

I wrote down four keywords for "self" and created each keyword as a theme. These are screenshots of the progress of the work.

In response to the theme of play and self, 

I wrote four keywords representing myself and made four short animations with each keyword as a creative theme.

Method 

1 I wrote out four keywords that represented myself, namely "sleep", "confused", "hug", "friend."

2 "Sleep": Because I'm always very sleepy, getting up early every morning is a challenging thing for me, and I sleep so deeply that even if someone calls me, it's hard for me to hear. With that as inspiration, I created a small animation

3"confused": I'm a not-so-intelligent person, I'm often confused about a lot of things, and whenever I feel confused, I feel like my brain is buzzing, and my body and world are getting messed up, so I created a little animation to express my inner world when I'm confused

4"Hug": When I feel sad, I want to hug myself encourage myself.

5"Friend": I like to communicate and play with my friends, I hope that my friends can have the same idea as me, and our spiritual world can be highly compatible

6 Adding appropriate transition animations makes the articulation between each small energy not stiff and can also enrich the picture of the entire animation. Audio files and transition effects from "剪映."

Context

I inspired the anime Love, Death and Robot, an animated short film consisting of 18 parts, each lasting 5-15 minutes. Short films cover a wide range of genres, including sci-fi, fantasy, horror and comedy, and short films also come in many forms, including traditional 2D and 3D short movies. This animation is also created through different themes and combined to make a big theme.

Reflection 

I create animations in a short time, the animation form is also straightforward, if there are more themes to develop, I hope to be able to try different animation forms, such as 3D animation, stop motion animation and so on
