Who am I?

The animation "Who Am I" is an artistic representation of a poem by the same name. It delves into the multifaceted nature of personal identity and understanding oneself. The project aims to visually represent the complexity and richness of identity through a combination of motion design and 2D animation techniques, including ink bleeds, reveals, and more.

​

The poem reflects on various roles and relationships, such as a brother, a son, and a friend, emphasizing that identity cannot be confined to a single label but is instead a composite of all experiences and roles. To capture this essence, the project will be composed of a few major components: each line of the poem will be artistically expressed through ink bleed techniques, creating a series of dynamic visual reveals.

​

These ink bleeds will metaphorically represent the fluid and evolving nature of identity, with each line of the poem uncovering a different aspect of the self. The animation will follow a character composed of ink with minimalistic features (primarily two eyes) to emphasize the universality and adaptability of identity. Each line of the poem will correspond to a distinct animation segment, visually narrating the poem’s themes through compelling and imaginative stories.

​

Complementing the ink bleed reveals, the project will feature a visually compelling 2D animated sequence. The aim is to engage viewers in a reflective and immersive experience, inviting them to ponder the question "Who am I?" through the innovative use of visual and motion design. By integrating traditional artistic techniques with modern animation, "Who Am I?" seeks to create a poignant and visually striking representation of the multifaceted nature of human identity.
