HAUNTED SCREEN

HAUNTED SCREEN

Animation and video mapping

Two keywords, « Sequenced Screen ». Animation intended to be projected on a simple volume (video mapping), a four parts creased screen.

Using various animation techniques (vector animation, stop motion), I wanted to propose a dream trip in several sequences / chapters.

The character design is directly inspired by Japanese’s superstitions and folklore demons (Japanese woodblock printing masters’ « Yokais »); certain kinds of creased screens were considered in Asian antiquity as artifacts to place in the bedroom, to protect the sleeper from evil spirits.

These creatures assault ; the screen becomes then a bullied rampart, as well as their pernicious actions’ expression surface. The grain that gradually appears on the image symbolizes the growing chimeras consistency in reality, from dream to the living world (creatures‘ interactions with the surface going crescendo).
