Artist Statement
This is a short animation video around 5 minutes to show a sad love story in an unreal theme. Its visuals are based on 2D motion graphics and shots are simulated by editing skills. The story originates from lots of fragments in my past memory. Not only love, but I also want to speak out about the equality between companions. The happy times, sad moments and so, ups and downs evoked some spirits to be treasured. Also, it recommends audiences to rethink what would be the best solution when they fall into an uncertain relationship with others. In this movie, a couple that experienced amnesia undergoes a puzzle-resolving game to find the exit of an unknown realm that traps them. Three characters are encountered, including the couple (boy in sky blue, girl in pale pink) and the ultimate god of judgment and destiny. How should the story end? What is destiny waiting for them? Do they deserve it?
