Title: Crane(2025no.21)
Medium: Digital Mixed Media (Video/Still Composition)
Process: This work combines original digital compositing and editing with generative elements. It is a hybrid stop-motion composition integrating photos, drawings and illustrations with the generative AI elements. The AI assets are treated as raw material—collage elements that are heavily processed, composited, and sequenced by the artist to construct the final narrative. The audio track is remixed from available music and sound effects to create a soundscape echoing the structure and atmosphere of the visual components.
