LISA Y LAS FLORES — Frame-by-Frame Character Animation

“LISA Y LAS FLORES” is an experimental animation project created entirely frame-by-frame using high-end animation software. The goal was to explore personal emotional expression through character design and animation, blending hand-crafted aesthetics with digital tools. The challenge was to develop a unique visual language that conveys nuanced emotions and experiences while creating a fully animated character in detailed frame-by-frame sequences.
Our mission:
-
Develop a compelling character with rich emotional depth through frame-by-frame animation
-
Utilize advanced animation software to create fluid, expressive movements
-
Explore personal and artistic themes through character design and storytelling
-
Produce a visually engaging background that complements the character’s narrative
The Strategy
