Cultural Shock ｜ 文化冲击的定格动画
本练习以“文化冲击”为主题，我创作了一系列短篇定格动画，包含脚本撰写、角色设计、场景构图与逐帧拍摄等流程。
我采访了在哥德堡居住的多国移民，包括波兰、荷兰、德国、美国、印度尼西亚以及来自非洲的二代移民。受访者们分享了他们在初到瑞典时的真实经历和感受，如好奇、兴奋、孤独、无措、尴尬等。这些故事为动画提供了丰富的内容和多元视角。
对我而言，这是一次对采访、信息整理和定格动画的综合练习，也是我理解他人、梳理自我感受、适应新文化环境的重要过程。

This practice is a series of short stop-motion animations that involve processes like scriptwriting, character design, scene composition, and frame-by-frame shooting.
I interviewed immigrants living in Gothenburg from Poland, the Netherlands, Germany, the United States, Indonesia, and a second-generation immigrant from Africa. They shared their first impressions and experiences upon arriving in Sweden — a mix of curiosity, excitement, loneliness, confusion, and awkwardness... These stories provided rich content and diverse perspectives for the animation series.
For me, this project was not only a comprehensive exercise in interviewing, information synthesis, and stop-motion techniques but also an important personal process for understanding others, processing my own feelings, and adapting to a new cultural environment.
PRIVACY 隐私
伊丽莎白 ｜ Elizabeth “在我自己的国家，法式接吻这种亲密的举动很少会出现在公共场合。但在瑞典这好像是很正常自然的事情。我第一次看到的时候真的超级尴尬，不知道该往哪看。” "In my own country, intimate gestures like French kissing rarely happen in public. But in Sweden, it seems completely normal and natural. The first time I saw it, I felt so awkward！I didn’t even know where to look." "When I came to Sweden, I felt mostly excitement and anticipation. I was really curious about the life and culture here. I arrived with an open mind, eager to meet new people and explore the unknown."2. EXCITEMENT 兴奋
雅莎 ｜ Josha“我来到瑞典的感受更多的是兴奋和期待，因为我很好奇这里的生活和文化是什么样的。我怀着一颗对一切开放的心来到这里，会主动的去认识新的朋友，探索未知。”3. WORLD CITIZEN 世界公民
欣 | Xin“我来到这里之后，最大的感受是文化和生活方式的多元性。我不再是那个只属于某一个文化背景的自己了。接触到不同的人和生活方式之后，我慢慢意识到自己的认知和行为方式也在变得更加多样，就像是逐渐成为了一个世界公民。这种变化让我感到自己被重新组合了，有时候也会有点不确定，但更多的是一种打开了的感觉。”"After coming here, what impressed me most was the diversity of cultures. I no longer feel like I belong to just my own cultural background. As I’ve met different people and experienced new lifestyles, I've gradually realized that I’m becoming more open-minded, as if I were slowly turning into a global citizen. This transformation makes me feel like I’ve been reshaped. Sometimes it’s uncertain, but more often it feels like I’ve stepped into an entirely new world."4. TYPOGRAPHY 字体
考虑到部分受访者不愿出镜，我在项目中保留了他们的声音，以他们的姓氏首字母代替他们真人形象。设计过的字母既与受访者讲的内容相呼应，又强化了画面的识别度。 To respect the privacy of participants who preferred not to appear on camera, I chose to represent them through the initial letter of their last name, rather than their portraits. Each designed letter visually echoes the content of their stories, enhancing the visual identity of the project.
