Storyboards and Animatics for Animated Films
I created below animatics and storyboards when I produced my animated films, I Am Roma, 38th Parallel and Echoing, it doesn't stop.
Animatics:
I AM ROMA
Stop Motion & 2D Animation - 2019-Present
I Am Roma is a story of a Romani child discovering her true self and learning the history and heritage of the Romani people. This is an animatic consisting of storyboarded panels with temporary soundtrack. The original animatic is 6 minutes long.
This film is a combination of stop-motion and 2D animation. I used stop-motion animation techniques to make the film more realistic and lifelike while using 2D digital techniques to create dreamlike scenery and complement the lifelike part of the film. I also created a puppet of the main character using corn husk, a traditionally used ingredient for making Eastern European traditional puppets. By using dialogue voiced by a Slovak child and an elderly woman, I attempted to raise awareness of the Romani people's struggles in the Slovak community and evoke emotions in both Slovak and Romani people.
38TH PARALLEL
Hand-Drawn Computer Animation - 2021
A hand-drawn computer animation that shows the division of Korea from the perspective of Korean students.
Storyboards:
ECHOING,
IT DOESN'T STOP
Stop-Motion Puppet & Sand Animation- 2022
Echoing, it doesn't stop (2022) addresses Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine and how the war drastically changed the lives of the Ukrainians. The film is based on a poem So I’ll talk about it by Serhiy Zhadan. The film is a combination of stop motion puppet animation and sand animation. This is the storyboard of the film.
