Who said you need fancy gadgets to keep yourself entertained? Like I said earlier, go back to pen and paper. Well, in this case paper and something to cut the paper with.
“Paper Dreams” is a Junior Degree Project, by Kenneth Onulak, that he worked on over his Spring semester at RISD.
“I wanted the animation to have a dream like quality exploring the reality and space in which the dream exists and felt that the cutout technique fit this idea. Color was another consideration that I built into the design of the animation to help enhance the dreamlike qualities of the film. From here the idea grew and as I did studies involving birds, umbrellas, water, trees, and other things I was able to refine my idea and break it down to find the core essentials of the film.”
The final film took 12 weeks to complete, has beautiful music by John Nolan, he thanked his Grandma, and I think I will watch it again – just because.
I really enjoyed this very simple and touching. Love it, I watched it again too. :)
