Personalities, attitudes, and most important of all, souls, are the elements that bring characters to life. For every step, be it huge or small, made by local animation characters on screen, they also actually walk in the footsteps of their creators.
This year’s Jockey Club ifva Everywhere 48 Hour Film Challenge (Animation) gathers 50 active local animators to co-create an original animation short film in the framework of “secret room”. Animator Step Cheung will design the creative outline, and work as the post-production director. ifva has also invited local indie band RubberBand to compose for the animation as the touring background music along the road of creation. While animators usually work alone in their own tiny space, their characters never stop taking their next step in the world of animation.
