“Inner voice” into embody
Animation is the act of drawing the inner voice, that are emotions, thoughts, concepts, spirits, etc., using the movement of light and shadow and sound.
In this video I talk about what I have thought in the process of creation through the process of making several works from filmography for the past 34 years.
アニメーションは、「内なる声」、それは感情や思想、概念、精神などを、光と影の運動と音響を使って描く行為です。過去34年のフィルモグラフィーからいくつかの作品の制作過程を通じて、創作の過程で考えてきたことを語ります。
