Cheng Dong – Animation Assignment

Completed Collage (Midpoint) BelowIDC Collage 26

The idea for my animation has been quite simple. In the construction phase of the anime I try to show Nose’s theme of “social hierarchy” by constructing a social pyramid. I start with a bunch of kneeling people on  the bottom, then less standing people on top of them, after that I placed several successful people in suits above, and finally I placed a nose wearing a crown on the very top. The nose being a sarcasm of the nose in the play that obtained a high ranking position of course. Advancing into the deconstruction phase, I attempt to display the fact that social hierarchy is held up by the mass amount of lower class people. As the lower class people disappear, the higher class falls down and losses their power.
