ANIMATION & WATER COLOUR
Background animation on big screens was used for the concert of famous Chinese-American cellist Yo-Yo Ma and for Japanese Kabuki performances. Using old Japanese techniques based on water colour. When ink and water meet an interesting effect occurs as we recorded the growing shapes in super slow motion. Below you 'll find studies, drawings and tests for Japanese style animation. The final results are shown here as collage and film stills.
