A boy in his journey to search and follow
along an unknown direction, which only depends
on a compass in his hand.
In this movie, I am interested in the visual representation of one’s searching and discovering
experience and the sensation of getting lost and loneliness during such a process. For the style of characters
and their compass, I was inspired by the idea that in this era with the information explosion, people
sometimes find themselves lost and aimless in such an environment. I chose the medium of 3D
animation to achieve such a sense of space.
