IF I AM A DITTO
PERSONAL PROJECT - ANIMATION PRACTICE
AFTER EFFECTS ANIMATIONS, GIF
I didn't play Pokemon frankly, not for a longer period than 2 hours, but I really like one of the little monsters, ditto. If
you have watched the TV episode of Pokemon series about ditto, you will feel how cute it is as I do since this little
creature was so kind and tried to fulfil the desire of people, no matter how people taunted at its imperfection. It can
transform itself into anything except the face. Of course at the end it has successfully transform its every part into
anything it wanted.
I think ditto is an inspiration to me, since it can be anything it wanted in a version of it. There are billions of people
in the world, some of them are getting super rich and super famous, a lot of times we look up to these people and
hoping we can be like them. Yet, we do not have to restrain ourself into this box of to be like someone else. We can
learn from them and we can be anything we want in a version of ourselves. To be you and just yourself.
The first GIF with the ditto-pikachu (I would call it "myself", since I was using it as a representation of myself) popping
out was the very first production that I have made when I was learning to use After Effects, thanks to the online
tutorial from Adobe and Mr. Curran. The second GIF was an expression of how I feel when I have to go from home to
any places in Hong Kong, since I live in a satellite part of Hong Kong (if you would like to know, it is called Tuen Mun,
where people from other districts think there are cows everywhere). The third one was my feeling when I was going to
Thailand from the Hong Kong Airport. When the gate number of your flight is over 200 (it feels like it is approaching
infinity), you feel like it is going to take you forever to get onboard.

I really like ditto too much so I made this, please feel free to use it as your wallpaper too if you would like to. That
green column without any creature coming out was supposed to be my place, I was going to join them, but you can
take the place if you would like to.
