This animation explores the idea of
afterlife through an abstract style of animation. The process for Afterlife was
under lit plastacine, Patel discovered this technique by accident and then
developed it. I like this animation because it feels very original in terms of
technique and it really explores what animation can be. The music adds to the
mood of the animation and makes what’s happening soothing and mystical. There is
limited use of colours but this is most likely due to the limitations of the
process. It is hard to understand what the animation is really saying but
nevertheless it is quite thought provoking because the information is not fed
to the viewer like in more commercial animations.
