[Projection Mapping Animation]
A man waking on the way to home meets a group of monsters. Even though these monsters’ actions changes gradually, the man cannot see these scenes because he is immersed in sorrow. When he arrives at home and pulls open the curtain, the city shows another scene.
I want to tell people that we should not focus on negative aspects.There are too much happiness that remains to be find. to be find. These cute monsters represent the fun in life and someone people loved but always neglected. They appear in everyone’s life from time to time and make something interesting. In this project, I am the director, the producer and the art director.

In this film, another city scene shows a prosaic life. Then after some monsters emerge, the city gradually becomes lively and colorful. But the upset protagonist cannot see these beautiful things, which metaphorizes a fact that modern people may ignore precious moments due to depression.
I found scenes from real life and designed specific animations. At the real scene, my team used projection mapping to match the animations with the reality. We utilized real-time projection and shot in the same time as the whole process.
