Finally, I can share the trailer of my independent short film (離風藍蘭), which has been invited to several festivals for its premiere! Two and a half years of self-animating, painting and producing, it is to honour my sister’s passing. Ultimately, this project became my refuge from pain and an act of love

Nevertheless, thanks to my family as always.

here is the trailer of <Monsoon Blue> , I had the pleasure to co-direct with @jay.w.art last year and produced by @fatboyno.2

It is in the cinema on 06/Sept and 09/Sept in Hong Kong.

It couldn’t be finished without this great team and all the effort they put in. Voice acted by the great @kaytse (the fishes by Valerie Cheng and Louise Lee) and the melancholic music scored by @allexchan

The magical @houzhi_le_renard_dodo started the journey with us at the beginning. Then we formed a great team including:

I had a chance to animate and did the layout of this sequence (my favorite) for this amazing film “Feux” directed and painted frame by frame by @mohammad.babakoohi. Its was even more emotional with the music composed by @pobkf.

Last year I had a chance to work in a Hong Kong animated short, its fun to animate this cat. Directed by Jay Wong and Donald Kwok.

At the beginning of 2021, I started making this personal piece. At first were just a few images like these two scenes, to memorize and honor my sister. Little by little it is coming to form a full picture - Bluebird in the wind. It also gave me the strength to go on. It is for you, and for us. https://www.instagram.com/elliscky/

2020 was a lockdown, anxious year, plus my son was born. New normality, I dealt with it with an experiment, did not know what would be the end result, hoping one day the dawn will come. Eventually, life took us to another place, even brighter than I thought. It was all alone at first, but then friends and family join in. Together we finish this piece. The soulful music from Alex and the beautiful handwriting from Zozo brought extra warmth to this film. - Written by Life during lockdown Animated directed by Ellis Ka-yin CHAN Original Music by Alexandre WURTZ SIMON Typography design by Zozo JHEN contact: [email protected] https://www.instagram.com/elliscky/ https://elliscky.tumblr.com/
