The ending of this version is open-ended and the final destination of the little orange is tragic so I changed it to a happy ending literally.

Because this project is all about food, so I wanted to start with the food I like the most. And I thought about Mac&cheese I ate in Borough Market, so I wanted to do a graphic novel with cheese. Thinking of myself as cheese and draw my week from the perspective of cheese. This is my first idea, but I think twice and found that this is quite simple and it can't gave people a profound impression and there's not much substance.Until one day I saw some Jelly Cats. The small orange got my attention, and I found this one is quite cute so I brought it. And I was thinking of doing the orange one instead of the cheese one. And it reminds me of my childhood with my dad.So I added some childhood elements to my novel.

This film follows the adventures of a young boy who one day finds a sentient, mute, red balloon, was filmed in the Ménilmontant neighbourhood of Paris. I roughly read the introduction of the film, and I think the meaning of my graphic novel would be a bit similar to this film.

As an imagery, the red balloon becomes a symbol of innocence, freedom and ideals in this film.The Red balloon Journey was made 50 years after the film's release as a tribute to Ramori's classic, and Wan Ma Tsetan used the red balloon as a metaphor for his 2019 film The Balloon.The end of the film, in which a large bundle of balloons takes pascal into the sky, was also used as a reference and homage to the famous animated film The Flying House.

Later with their mother is seriously ill, the sister disappears when she goes to look for her mother.With the help of totoro, the sister finds her sister and sees her mother who is getting better.

I first saw the Totoro movie in 2015 and I just thought it was cute. And several days ago I went to see the Totoro play again, and because I had done the Totoro research before so this time the play moved me to tears. Whether it's a movie or a play, it reminds me of my childhood. I too have wanted to go back in time countless times and the story of Totoro makes me think that when we miss something, the intensity of the emotions we recall are on the high side, like crying super hard when we remember we lost something one time, but the truth may not be as bad. We tend to only remember the conclusion of a judgement and ignore the frame of reference in which it was made: for example, only remembering that certain TV shows we watched as children were good, but ignoring that it was in the context of comparing them to TV shows from the same period. We are familiar with what has happened in the past, but the future is unknown, and the unknown can be stressful.

These are some of the zones I saw in class that I found interesting, and they were the inspiration of the layout of my graphic novel.

# data[].attributes.body
In my graphic novel, I want to show the care of left-behind children, parents indifference to their children but not a lack of the child, not much concern for children's mental health and the lack of communication with parents and lack of love from childhood.
For example, the boy grew up with his grandparents and only got a bit communication with parents. Because of his personality, he doesn't have too many friends, so once he saw the orange he think it's his best friend. The orange was drawn the expression by the boy so it thought it's not a fruit, it's a human as well. Mom saw the orange with expression and  understood something that they don't have much care  and they missed out the growth of their son. So mom made an orange toy with cotton during the weekend so that this little orange can stay with their son forever.

I went to digital printing and printed out my graphic novels, but I thought the sequence of the layout is totally wrong….and I don’t have enough time at that time, so I just went to Print&finishing workshop to do the print and binding the novel as a zine.
I’m still confused about the sequence of the zine. I would try another layout next time, because the colour changed a little bit in the print&finishing workshop and the printer in the library. And digital print can bring the right feeling of my novel.

I went to letterpress workshop and made some leaflets of my manifesto. It was more tiring than I expected and I think it would have looked better as a postcard. I had to digitally print out the Chinese characters first to leave room for the letterpress manifesto, which is different from my digital version but basically what I expected. I chose black and white because I don't like complicated colours and it looks very simple in black and white.

# data[].attributes.headline
My manifesto is ‘Things have a way of working themselves out.’ And the Chinese sentence means the similar, like the road is only visible at the front of the hill. I can't see the road now. So don't go thinking too much before the mountain.If I'm not in the situation now, I don't know what's really there. Understanding, perception and turnaround all happen in the process. This saying does not mean that we should "do nothing" and let nature take its course, but rather that we should understand its laws and not be intimidated by difficulties and setbacks, and that we should believe in ourselves and that if we can maintain our determination and continue to work hard, we will definitely get out of our difficulties, escape from adversity and achieve our goals in life.

I went to The Centre Pompidou in Paris this winter break. At first I just wanted to go for some inspiration, but in the process of looking at the work I was thinking about it. What is more important to me, the colours I like, the things I like and so on. Then I decided to start with the colours I like, I really like Klein blue and my favourite singer recently released an album in another shade of blue called Indigo, I photographed all the pieces in the shades of blue I like and these are my favourites.

Also went to Munch Museum in Oslo. His very famous 'The Scream' is in this museum and there are some interactive pieces on the top floor of the museum which I really enjoyed and I found it very interesting to be able to reproduce his sculptures with crayons.

I went to the MoMA in New York during Christmas. This is my favourite art museum that I have been to during my winter break. I loved the photography here, and I love photography myself. I really wanted to capture this more antique texture and tone from decades ago and I was researching how I could do that. I've seen a lot of blue tones this holiday and it's made me feel more like blue and inspired to do some videos

This is a string piece that I composed. I've recorded and screened two of my favourites. I love music, so I'm also interested in composing, and I've composed six pieces over the years. I think composing gives me the same sense of achievement as painting, and when I finish the piece and play it from the beginning I feel very happy, even if I get bored or disgusted during the composing process.

I painted these vignettes in my favourite shade of Klein blue. I wanted to show how I change inside when I am not socialising. For example, sometimes I get into deep thoughts about my relationships with my friends, the changes in the world when I am alone; sometimes I get depressed and feel like the world has abandoned me, etc. There are also times when I want to bury myself deep, not to engage with the world, not to talk to people, not to face everything... This video is just a little world of solitude for me.

“ arguing that "Bruno's innocence comes to stand for the willful refusal of all adult Germans to see what was going on under their noses.”—Written by Kathryn Hughes in The Guardian, calls the novel "a small wonder of a book."

Because my home town was also a German colony, there are still some German-style buildings and floor tiles. As a child my mother would tell me about the Jews and occasionally tell me stories about them and Germany.

I happened to read the book and see the movie in high school. It gave me a greater awareness of the Jews.I felt very depressed after watching this film and the horrors of war at the time. The perspective from a child's point of view brought me into the whole drama better.

The reinforced concrete inside the building is an 'enhanced' building material and reinforces the impression of an empty place and a void at the end of the building. In this oppressive space, only a faint light shines through the cracks. This is a symbolic representation of what it was like to be a Jew during the Second World War, designed by Ribotskin for visitors to experience. Even in the "darkest hour", you can never escape this realm. A glimmer of light reveals an almost faint hope.

Just know Daniel Libeskind because of the Jewish museum in Berlin. The building of the museum gave me a big shock and it was really impressive. After I did the research about him, I know that he’s a Jewish as well, so he gave me more motivations to do the video about the work .

It refers to the anti-Semitic riots that took place on the 9th and 10th of November 1938. The riots took place in Germany, dependent Austria and the Sudetenland in Czechoslovakia, which had recently been occupied by German troops. The name derives from the shards of glass that littered the streets of Germany in the aftermath of the riots, which came from the windows of churches, houses and Jewish shops that had been looted and destroyed during the riots.

This time I used Procreate and Cap Cut to do the animation. I found that animation is always a bit hard for me as it needs more details. I mixed my drawings and photography together.And the main colour scheme is black and grey, so that it can show the dark side of the event.Next time I would like to add some 3D effects and more details.
