Wow!! The visual presentation is absolutely impeccable. I love the variety with how the two characters are presented (especially the bowls of noodles!). The girls' tryst in the abandoned building was breathtaking.
k: Thank you so much! I had a lot of fun experimenting with the paneling format to try to bring the script to life. It was my first time working on a vn and I had a lot more envisioned cinematically but when it came to execution within the jam's time constraints, I got humbled p quickly and cut out a lot of the storyboard/art.
The food scene was my favorite scene to work on, to a self-indulgent degree. When I imagined the characters' interactions, I tried to isolate their gestures or suggestions of movement by honing in onto their body language or the objects affected by their movement as if it were the most honest performance of the self. There was extra effort to the staging/positioning of the characters to set up the rules, boundaries and parallels, and to break down or to overlap said identities, respectively, the way Seolyeong perceived them along their journey. I'm so glad you enjoyed my fluid interpretation of the characters! I appreciate it a lot!
