Stop-motion, Graduation project | An artificial novel




Graduation project "An artificial novel" (stop-motion)
Technology is not only changing our environment, but also our relationships and our self image. What will the future look like without offline communication? Meet Kevin, young and in love, 
but struggling with himself through the effects of an online-oriented society.

Stills from a stop-motion video. The video is a physical experience, will not be shown online.

A few shots of the stop-motion video 'An artificial novel' are shown below. Three different screens which all have a symbolic conception.  

Pink. Kevin's (main character) life and how it changed through time. 
Symbol for the side effects from obsessive digital behavior.
Blue. The voiceover is reading a letter. This love letter is shown in the second screen. 
Symbol for physical and digital lives. 
Green. Therapy session. Clock is ticking backwards. This is the amount of time Kevin has left on the internet, which is an therapy assignment of his psychologist. The time is also an indicator how long the stop-motion will go on. 
Symbol for our society where younger generations have more mental illnesses because of obsessive digital behavior.
