With the change of time, vehicles on the track getting more rapid and diversified, the pace of living becomes faster, which leads to the change of our living environment. In the violent changing city, inspired by the current issues of the growing process and the distance between parents and children, the author created the story of the track. As a matter of fact, in different stages of life, the interactive patterns between parents and children are different, and the adolescent stage is the stage that the relationship between parents and children changes the most. However, with the increase of age, the relationship between parents and children would become steady. Because of the distinctiveness of the adolescent stage, the author aims at exploring the interaction between parents and children in the puberty. The story describes the adventure story of how the main character, “Mei-mei”, and the bird of protection that represents family love, “Pun-pun”, experience all kinds of happiness and sadness and grow up together. The story portraits the main character’s growth and the value of family love in different stages. The story was created by the traditional hand-drawing style, assisted by the computer graphics, and presented in the form of 2D animation. The story concept, character setting, animation creation, scene production, script setting, and animation production are all individually done by the author. Besides, the author composed and recorded the theme song by herself, presenting an integrated creation. The story is inspired by the “track”, and the author’s use of the track has two meanings: the first one is the metaphor within the system, that is, parents’ expectation and care to their children, and the internal struggle from infants to adolescents and adults; the other is the image of the age, representing the vehicles moving on the track and the change caused in the society and environment. Using the animation that represents the track, the story expects that the viewers would feel the warmth of family love and cherish the memory of the change of time.
