iAniMagic: The Animal Party\u00a0ended in December 2020. We want to thank all of the contest\u2019s participants–especially the students and teachers from Shude University of Science and Technology, Southern Taiwan University of Science and Technology, and Rangsit University for participating in the student award.<\/p>\n

In this post, we interview Ting Yi, who won the Student Golden Award, with her film, <\/span>Party Whale<\/a>.<\/span><\/i><\/span> The judges enjoyed the transitions and design of each sequence in her work.\u00a0 Read on to uncover the story behind this short film and her experience with Animation Desk (for Windows 10)<\/a>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Hello Ting Yi! First, congratulations for winning the Golden Award in iAniMagic 2019! Can you introduce yourself to the readers?<\/b><\/p>\n

Hello everyone, my name is Li Ting Yi. I\u2019m currently studying visual communication and animation at the Southern Taiwan University of Technology<\/span>. My interest lies in motion graphics and special effects. In my leisure time, I like drawing, dancing, and watching horror movies and dramas. <\/span>I\u2019m grateful that my animation, <\/span>Party<\/span><\/i> Whale<\/span><\/i>, was well-received by the audience.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Animation<\/p>\n

How do you plot this animation? Is there any particular reason that you choose a whale as the main character?\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

The theme \u201cAnimal Party\u201d made me think about a party scene. DJ scratching discs to produce beats and music<\/a>, hot girls dancing, intimacy growing between strangers quickly\u2026That was my first time attending a nightclub, and everything was remarkable.<\/span><\/p>\n

I picked a whale as my main character because it is my favorite animal. Additionally, the simple and flowy shape of a whale\u2019s body was perfect for creating animated effects.<\/span><\/p>\n

You make the beginning and the end of the animation connected. According to your description, it\u2019s a metaphor for reincarnation. It\u2019s an interesting idea…can you tell us more about it?<\/b><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve always believed in the afterlife. I believe that humans are reincarnated unless they do something terrible. If you loop this animation, the whale will keep doing the same thing. Partying, playing around, and reproducing. It\u2019s like being stuck in a cycle, and unable to experience other beautiful things in life.<\/p>\n

\"Animation<\/p>\n

Which part of this animation do you like the most? Why?<\/b><\/p>\n

I like the transition scenes that show Whale DJ and pole dancers. The scene shows a front view of the sound bars on DJ\u2019s panel and then the bars transform into pole dancers. I tried many different transitions, and finally decided it should go this way. I like this transition because it\u2019s smooth with sparks of creativity.<\/span><\/p>\n

What are the most difficult parts of animation in your opinion?<\/b><\/p>\n

2D animation, unlike 3D animation, uses a transformation to create style and effects. I use pose-to-pose to control the transformation and timing of my animation; however, there is still a lot of room for improvement.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Animation<\/p>\n

What\u2019s your experience with Animation Desk? What are the most frequently used features?<\/b><\/p>\n

I used Animation Desk UWP to create <\/span>Party Whale<\/span><\/i>. This was the first time that I created an animation short on my own. I used onion skin almost all the time because it worked like a real lightbox. I previewed my animation a lot when making it. Generally speaking, I think Animation Desk is great software for beginners.<\/span><\/p>\n

Do you have any plans for the future?<\/b><\/p>\n

I expect myself to create an animated short with details and audiences can be touched every time they watch it. Is it too ambiguous? I\u2019m thinking of animations like <\/span>Paprika<\/span><\/i> and <\/span>Perfect Blue<\/span><\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Lastly, please recommend an animated film to us.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

Perfect Blue<\/span><\/i> (directed by Satoshi Kon) is my all-time favorite. I like films that express humanity and enjoy rich details. The plot is not complicated, but rather, profound.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Satoshi said, \u201cEvery scene carries meaning in the world of animation.\u201d He stitched the reality and dream of the main characters with transitions. It is \u201cPerfect Blue\u201d that lead me to appreciate these transitions that cannot be achieved outside of animation and the rhythm of the frames.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
