Viz students update Aesop's Fables
with ancient storytelling technique

 

Students in an undergraduate visualization class explored the foundational elements of two-dimensional animation by creating shadow puppets and using them to perform their own interpretations of Aesop's Fables.

Led by visualization faculty members Junghee Hahm, lecturer, Donna Hajash, senior lecturer and Philip Galanter, assistant professor, students worked in teams to create puppets reminiscent of those first used when the art of animated, visual storytelling began.

The performance was staged Nov. 19 in front of a big crowd in the Langford B Exhibit Hall.

Videos of each of the student groups' shows are also available on the department's vimeo website at: http://vimeo.com/vizlab.
