Each year we ask the current thesis students to share one of their favorite projects from the previous year. Introducing:
Yanz Zeng, Shenzhen, China
Project: SVA Library Is...
"This is a project I did with our school library this summer. They wanted to have some video element on their new website. To explore and express what SVA Library is in a visual and fun way, we decided to make a stop motion by coherent storytelling of all the genre of books the library owns in a surreal color world. This stop motion animation was made using paper and card board cutouts, wood sheet, plastic, and rubber. It was edited with Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator and Premiere."
