So-.... this page has been quite dead for the past two years. But well ! I had a pretty good reason ! I just graduated from Gobelins in Paris and did this movie with a wholesome teammate named Rose Gallerand (@truite_wasabi on instagram) !

The real story of a young lady from Costa Rica, Pacifica Zelaya, who went to study in Belgium at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels in 1905. Unfortunately, there, she met Edouard Mailly, another student who would become her fiancé. Our movie tells the story of a relationship, a concert and her last evening.

In addition...

 I have to thank you all in a cheesy way : I started this account years and years back, at the beginning of my studies, without any ambition but to draw fanarts of Undertale, and looking back, I can see how far I’ve come now. Today, I’m working and paying my bills, but I’ve still got the sweet @paintingit​ as a dear friend (whom I met here, it’s crazy) and it’s strange to tell myself this all started with a skeleton now voted #1 sexiest tumblr man, yea. It’s also thanks to all the nice comments and feedbacks I’ve received from you over the years. Then I hope you’ll enjoy this movie who’s been one hell of a trip, but which I’m still a little proud despite it all to show today.

Thank you ! And take care !

Tbh, I don't actually like the way Pixar animation looks and it's never been my end goal. I'm more inspired by 2D stuff, especially like Genndy Tartakovsky, Gorillaz, and the student films from Gobelins.

[mtvunplugged1996]

Recently I've been spending a lot of my free time watching the short films produced by Gobelins, and I wanted to make a post compiling some of my favorites. Content warnings listed beside the links. Pt. 1

4. SUNDOWN (2020) is about a troupe of dancers who panic as one one of their performers disappears on opening night.

5. LE RETOUR DES VAGUES (2020) is the story of a young photographer, returning to his hometown and reliving his childhood memories.

6. THE LITTLE POET (2023) isn't a film by Gobelins (the artist is a student at CalArts), but I had to include it anyway. The narrator is a young poet who falls in love with a girl he sees in painting at a museum.

I hope you enjoy watching these! <3

Conceptualisation | Solarpunk II

Thus, the insinuated foreshadowing from the first Solarpunk post comes to fruition. Whilst thinking of how to evolve the story that I wanted to tell, who my audience is and how I can better utilise the world, I came upon this.

That is what I would like to say, but truly, we begin with a song.

After my first class for the year, I was exploring ideas on the ground floor with my partner and a few friends. I tend to enjoy brainstorming while listening to music, so I was doing that whilst watching other student films from CalArts and GOBELINS to see if I could glean some inspiration from any of it. Last Summer, in particular, was a point of realisation for me as it conveyed essentially the same message that I was trying to tell with my initial film. My partner and I joked that instead of a film about people leaving, I could make one about people reuniting. As I was thinking, the next song on my playlist started; Optical Illusion by The Soul Sri Lanka. It was interesting, because while I resonated with the lyrics, I felt powerful emotions through the chords and instrumentation as well, that seemed to tell a different story. (Worry not, this is still an explanation of the mind map above)

Acrylic Painting of a Sunrise - Jed Dorsy

We live in a world where people are hyper focused on school, university, work, all for what? We work so that we don't have to work after a certain point. We, as Sri Lankans and even as people, get so caught up in our responsibilities that we end up existing to work. We forget to live. When was the last time that we stopped to look at the little things? To "Catch the Sunrise" so to speak?

And so this is a long winded segue into what I truly want to say with my student film. This boils down to two things. I came upon this phrase as randomly as I wrote it down on my mindmap, it simply spilled out of my mouth; "Catch the Sunrise." What does that really mean? Upon my own analysis, to catch the sunrise is to seize the day; carpe diem. I believe that is to take control of ones life into their own hands. To catch the sunrise is simply to do something just because you can, because you want to, to feel alive. To see something beautiful and clear your mind. In today's society, are we too busy to catch the sunrise?

Maybe to catch the sunrise is to notice the small things about other people, how do we live? How do they live? These are some of the thoughts I explored through this phrase, which ultimately circled back to society being too fixated on a given thing, that they miss the chance to see something as simple as the sunrise. To see other people's lives. The world, very simply, does not revolve around one person.

This returns to the ideas of simply doing something just because and taking control of one's own life, and it begs the question; what does it take to embrace life and inspire that change in us. I believe that it is art and love; friendships, relationships and family. On the topic of the latter, what is family if not a community? The idea of the Found Family trope that garnered much success in the realm of fanfiction is finding a community that accepts you; a found family.

Community inspires art, one cannot make art alone with no inspirations, and so we look to the former of the two things I believe it takes to change one's life. Art does not have to be visual, it could be audio as well. This is not a foreign concept, however a more overlooked idea is that art can be tactile as well. Art could be hands on and interactive. It could be gustatory as well, a smell that takes us back to our childhood. The common thread between all art is that it takes two hands to clap; the artist and the audience. The art is nothing without the audience and vice versa, in order for art to succeed, one needs community. Additionally, observant readers will recall that community is one of the two core principles of Solarpunk that I extracted in the first post on this topic.

Why Solarpunk, then? Does this story absolutely need to be told in a Solarpunk setting? No. However, a story like this is best told through the lens of a Solarpunk world. Why? I have discussed what I think makes up the core of Solarpunk when stripped down to its bare essentials, so now the matter becomes a question of what Solarpunk represents. At its core, this idea is a utopian future, one where the horrors of global warming are not a concern, because humans have taken to using clean energy and living simple lives in harmony with nature. The name Solarpunk itself comes from the idea of solar power as a renewable energy source.

Dear Alice - The LINE Animation

There are a few other words that I wrote down in the heat of my brain storm, attempting to look at what Solarpunk means for Sri Lanka (bottom middle of mind map). These are simply rough thoughts, but I think they are worth mentioning here in case I develop on them in the future. The two easiest to decipher are Solarpunk being representations of hope and community. The last two came to me quite literally in a vision; Solarpunk is local and Solarpunk is personal. What do these mean? The former falls more in line with the interpretation of the world I want to create for this story, fusing local culture, arts and ideas with this notion of a clean society. The latter, I believe, aligns with the core goals of this movement mentioned throughout this post and the first one I made on this topic. I plan on conducting further research into this as time goes on for my dissertation.

This ideal world that has slowed down and enjoys life despite work may sound familiar; it is the same message that I want to impress upon audiences through my film. This is where I came up with the story. I found it fitting that the story should come from a random phrase that I wrote down in a mind map. This idea proposes a film about someone racing to see the sunrise. On their journey, they would race through the city on their bike (or futuristic solar powered tuk-tuk) and see the city for what it is, from how the rich live, to how the poor live up until they finally reach the sunrise. As I have said in other posts, ultimately I want to create a story that leaves viewers feeling at ease, warmed and hopeful for the future, and I believe that this is the message that the world needs.

The length of this project concerns me. If the story is to focus on the journey to see the sunrise, can I really depict all the facets of this concept that I want to with all the respect that they are due? To do this, another mind map will be necessary. That's right, you thought this was the end of it? Not by a long shot. The plan going forward is to hone in on any of these 5 concepts, start exploring, block out a story, start refining that story, create a script, thumbnails, a storyboard and animatic. This of course is not mentioning all of the development work for the style, world and characters themselves that need to be done!

[posts one of the specially-picked best-of-the-best student films of gobelins] KEK look at how good this is compared to the average calarts and sheridan SLOP this is why animation never gets anywhere and it's just ugly blue-haired dykes crying at each other!!1!!!

okay well i'm going to find the smartest physics student at MIT's undergraduate thesis and compare it to your UCLA product and see how good you feel then. but you're not an idiot are you. even when there's someone better you're not an idiot are you. grow up.

#also not enough ugly blue haired dykes crying at each other ngl #my LIFE doesnt have enough ugly blue haired dykes in it i gotta fix this. #to clarify i dont know anything about anything about anything i just get in fights on animation threads now.
