 FALL

Date of Completion: Nov. 2009;
Duration: 7' 36'';

FALL is a stop-motion animation that tells a story about a girl and a piece of cloud. The girl’s archetype is me, while the cloud is an abstract image of someone who is always there for me. At the beginning, they were just two characters created for my animation class assignments. While exploring to enliven animation characters, I was planning a whole story about them. At the end of that semester, these two characters matured, and their story clue also came clear. Thus, the production of FALL began. Every single piece of stage property was made by me. Sometime making a sofa in proper size would take me a whole night. For every scene, I would shoot hundreds of times and bend my head into those pictures trying to find out the best one. In front of the computer, I stared at the screen for 16 hours a day repeatedly modifying and polishing every single detail. The five-month hard working on this seven-minute animation was eventually rewarded with the Silver Prize in the First Beijing Student Cartoon and Animation Design Competition.

Date of Completion: May 2011;
Duration: 1' 38'';

It is a trailor of animation WuWuMiLa. WuWuMiLa tells a story about a cat born without mouth. It sacrificed half of its heart to make a mouth and then started looking for something proper to fill vacancy in the heart. At last, it realized that having a mouth also cannot bring it a better life. Thus, it made the mouth into a half-heart and returned it back.
