"Crossing" - Moving image design

To enable the glass to have reflections, both of my moving images have black tone.

The darkness allows a reflection to be seen more clearly.

There will be 2 moving images play on each wall, one is the video I took at night and the other is the animation of skeleton.

The dark videos do not allow the viewer to know where exactly the footage was taken. This enabled the viewer to think more freely about the space and interpret it in their own way.

The skeleton is like the reflection of us.

As we are walking through the exhibition space, we see the animation of the skeleton and we can also see the reflection of us on the glass --- this makes us fell that we are walking with the skeleton, an it seems to be one of the viewers.

This also refers to the dark videos. If the viewer ltry to position themselves to get some images from the glass, they will easily notice that this animation can actually combine with the dark videos to become a complete story.

If the viewer look at glass, the moving image of one wall will be reflected on the glass; and the reflection combine with the moving image which they see on the other wall, they will get a new moving image like tihs:
