NEW CHITOSE 2024 POSTER
We are so excited to announce the poster for NEW CHITOSE 2024 designed by Japanese monochrome painter, AKETARA Sirome.
Message
The idea stemmed from my interest in making an illustration by simulating the process of creating an animation, which includes drawing, filming, and making music to accompany it. As I cut out drawings with a knife and prepared a glass table for shooting, I couldn’t help but think about my predecessors and all their hard work in making animations.
