Abstract
The Predator is a story between a little boy and the bears. The bear is always thought of as a furious predator but, in the end, who is the true predator who set up the whole trap? And who is the prey being tricked?
The whole work is made out of a single image. I enrich the vertical thickness of the narrative by zooming out minutely bit by bit. The single picture becomes a story told procedurally. The transitions are designed carefully to achieve a steady horizontal flow, with pacing and atmosphere that sustains the visual journey until the end when the story is made clear.
