In life, we are so caught up in a rat race running for wealth and fame that we have allowed ourselves to be enslaved and blinded by the process. Through this animation, we invite audience to rethink and reprioritise their values. Our message is ‘Follow you heart and it will lead you to become a “true” human’. |

I had the chance to represent Hong Kong animators to show my work « I’m ». I really enjoyed the screening held.
The audience was awesome. They were curious about my inspiration. Actually, this
animation is sort of a self-expression. I made this animation just before
my graduation. At that time, I was wondering if I should chasing money and
wealth life like others or if I should follow my heart to establish my own
value. It’s a very short but powerful animation which leads the audience to a
universal question: how to find your true self? I’m really glad to hear that
some of the audience began to ask this question after the screening.
As a 3D animator, I’m very interested in new technology. During the
festival, I had chance to participate 10 different workshops which bring
together film schools, design studios and schools specialising in sound and
moving image industry. During the workshop, I explored the innovative 3D technology,
and met 2D and 3D animators, virtual reality specialists, production designers,
etc. Especially I had also met Benoit, the founder of the famous Courant 3D
Film Festival. He invited me to submit my works to his festival which gave me a
new opportunity to show my work.
Besides, the theme of the Festival was focused
on astronomy this year. I’m a real fan of this kind of movies. Some of the
ideas are original and innovative which inspired me a lot for my own ICG movie in the near future.
Though I didn’t have enough time to explore all aspects of the festival,
I’ve still learnt a lot during the whole trip and it’s definitely worth to come
back! ”
