Abstract:
|
"This thesis will focus on the application of German Expressionism to inform the creation of a 2D animated short. The history of German Expressionism will be explored in its various mediums including its influence on early silent horror films to create a consistent visual language that invokes unease and dread in the audience."

Abstract:
|
Includes the author's 2D animated short film "Thorns" that uses "elements of German Expressionism to convey anxiety and dread, primarily in the form of a nightmare." The film tells the story of two friends, a man and a robot, Dust and Silver, wandering in a desert, and their experiences with marauders and poisoned fruit.
