Fly to Seoul

Here we are! Today is the day I'm going to visit the other side of the world. Almost one month in South Korea, the place Yoon is coming from, meeting another family in another country of another culture. The next 28 days we'll be somewhere between Busan and Seoul. 40 percent of all koreans are living in and around the capital Seoul and exactly that is the first stop of our journey. My expectations are very high. I hope that we will have a great time and that I can get a good impression of country, culture and people, which is necessary to get a basis for my graduating project. I will try to capture as much impressions as possible in video and photography to have a good source so that I can start very easily in October when I'll come back.

I am a 25 year old Art + Crossmedia Design student from Germany, currently based in Enschede, Netherland. My work ranges from different kinds of media, but my passion lies in interactive design and animation using Photoshop, Illustrator, After Effects and Cinema 4D.

Currently, I am going to prepare for graduating in summer next year.
My project will be about the conflict between North and South Korea. Basis for that will be the caricature which I will use as an animation in 3D. In the end there will be a sequence of 10 - 20 short episodes which will caricature Kim Jong Il in a comic excessive view criticizing the political situation and the social terms of North Korea.
