The story of an immigrant and his companion guide Wizard saying \u00b7\u201cHello\u201d to new unknown lands. In this experimental film that recreates old fantasy video games through irony, the characters face strange situations and places that allude to the absurd nature of the immigrant’s journey: its ideas of achievement, monotony, and expectation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

A short film that depicts a metamorphosis from \u201cchicken\u201d to \u201celephant\u201d: animation enables metamorphosis precisely because it realizes a transformation from image to concept. This frame-based, time-driven movement not only constructs form, but also grants images a capacity for expansion that static objects lack. Just as chickens and elephants are not only natural creatures but also carry distinct cultural meanings in human society, Taming Phenomena presents an animated dialogue from chicken to elephant, through an exploration of cinematic and animation techniques and production methods. The film employs an experimental collaborative approach to initiate a visual discussion between images, concepts, and intersubjectivity.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
