Project summary:
This design discipline is based on the skilful interpretation and representation of a developed character, through a process of narrative conceptualisation and sequential thinking. A title sequence is developed and packaged in the form of a stop-motion animation. It focusses on the main theme of ‘fundamental human emotion’.

Design strategy:
Tasked to conceptualize, storyboard, design and create a stop motion, the narrative is focused on and inspired by the 1960s. In collaboration with Cailin Botha, the visual treatment was developed by juxtaposing a housewife and her husband with the aim to take one another by surprise.
