wk_1 Reflection
Engaging with a real person (my partner Len), which help to improve our unfinished design project through real-time feedback, we run into new problems and bring up with solutions to solve problems. In the meantime, new problems may arise. This is a very quick iterative cycle and the stage I would re-visit next is the way of presenting anamorphic Illusions.
Start : Modes of presentation of anamorphic Illusions
Stop : Design the concept
Keep : Critically analysis whether the presentation can convey the concept.

Project intention : Anamorphic Illusions + Motion Illusions
An anamorphosis is a deformed image that appears in its true shape when viewed in some "unconventional" way. A basic definition of animation is the illusion of motion, or change, created by changing an image over time.
I'd like to create a set of mini animations to explore the application of anamorphic Illusions and motion illusions and how can we combine them effectively in animation.
One of my idea is, create 3D drawings using pen to create some anamorphic environment (Stairs, rooms, etc.) that comes alive when viewed from a certain angle. Make mini animation with 2d character. (Italian artist Alessandro Diddi)
Another one is put anamorphic art (illustration, lines, points, etc.) into three-dimensional world.(real world, 3D models, etc.) Wonder how it interacts with surrounding world. To make the anamorphic art interact with another perspective and make mini animation with 2d character. (Mauro Italiano, Felice Varini)
