Due to the psychological impact of growth experiences in the past, the author had to face her own problems and make changes. After a period of repeated introspection and self-review, the author has deeply realized the importance of psychological consciousness and thus decided to use it as the starting point for creation.
The project process began by investigating the relationship between psychology and consciousness. Through the existing literature and research, relevant information was found and experiences were summarized. Following the self-psychological context, the relationship between such information and experiences and the creation was observed. With self-practice, the operation between consciousness and subconsciousness was understood. Corresponding with the impacts of the current mental state and the creation, the appropriate method was found and applied to the creation, and personal understanding was developed as the theme. To present the film, hand drawings were combined with computer technology to simulate a visual style of engraving. The experimental stop-motion animation for storytelling were then drawn. During the production process, every possible method of performance was attempted so that the animation could interpret and express the abstract thought of the imprisonment of the self-consciousness and thereby explore whether we are trapped in a world constructed by ourselves.
This study aims to understand the relationship between consciousness and behavior on a psychological level. By combining abstract visual language, such as symbolism and metaphors, a kind of unimaginable mental state is interpreted, and invisible feelings are conveyed into visible images, leading audiences into an animated scenario and providing them with deep emotional feelings. The anticipated effect is empathy.
