Original Song & Lyrcis: ilem 赤羽 《苍蝇》The story was inspired by an existing song that depicts the lifestyle of a fly, which metaphorically represents an individual’s life and personality.
This group project allowed us to explore stop-motion animation techniques while experiencing the charm of collaborative teamwork.
By exclusively using environmentally friendly materials, the group was able to manage the entire project in a more sustainable manner, exploring the artistic potential of discarded items. From an economic perspective, the project was completed on a minimal budget, while also providing a fun and creative experience in designing characters and props throughout the process.
