Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors / title sequence
The main part of this film project ‘To set the Mood’ at the Art School Weissensee in Berlin was to design a title sequence for a film, book or an original story. I took a film by Armenian director Sergej Paradzhanov ‘Shadows of forgotten Ancestors’. Using paper cut-outs I tried to reflect the atmosphere and roughness of the Carpathian Ukraine, but at the same time the lyrics of everyday life there. For this title sequence was used music by Dakha Brakha.

This animation was exhibited as a finalist at the International Biennale ‘Golden Bee 9’ in Moscow, Russia in 2010 in the category Graphic Design and New Media.
