KAMI

KAMI

a cut-out stop motion

My final year film, KAMI follows 2 brother's dispute over who gets imaginative control of their playtime. Ibi, as the older of the 2 has always been the natural leader in dominating their playtimes. This time, Dodo is determined to have his imaginations heard. * Use of 2 different paper craft (Quilling and Origami) to represent each brother's different imagination style.

KAMI both means 'Paper' in Japanese, and 'Us' in Malay

Mama look. I'm FLYING!

If you could have super powers, what would it be?

Me, apart from already being a veteran in katana fighting, and being able to fire-bend, I just want to FLY!

NOTE: Changed the name of the characters to Ibi (Quilling) and Dodo (Origami) inspired after my two youngest brothers. yes, I'm missing them. ;)

Testing and Playing

Here are some test plays

Kris

The swords .

I made Za's sword significantly smaller than Ib's to show the older brothers' dominance when having control

The swords were inspired by the traditional dagger of the South East Asia

Dissecting a Mermaid

Took me 2 days to finally be satisfied with the Mermaid

(it will either be for test animations or be in KAMI itself)

with all the little tools and tweezers, It really does feel like I was conducting a surgical operation HAHA

my eyes are super tired but I'm happy
