'Face your demons': a process of problem-solving in mixed medium animation

Abstract

The aim of this project is to explore the creative and technical possibilities of mixed media animation, synthesizing traditional and digital techniques to push the boundaries of storytelling and visual communication. This paper will document how fresh perspectives and approaches contributed to the creative problem-solving process, varying across different stages of animation production. Additionally, the paper highlights significant, non-obvious values discovered and created, opening up new possibilities such as hybrid workflows and narrative experimentation.
