- Production Technology
- This series of illustrations is drawn by procreate software. It is produced by a high level of printing and manufacturing techniques to show the beautiful and exquisite detail of the illustrations.
- Design Challenge
- The difficulty lies in accurately characterising traditional Chinese festivals and their elements, achieving a combination of modern aesthetics and traditional elements, computer technology and traditional craftsmanship, and the aesthetic standards of the characters.
- Research
- This "Chinese Festivals" series of illustrations features the Chinese New Year, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival and Chung Yeung Festival, which include festive elements such as "New Year animals", "firecrackers", "dragon boats", "zongzi" and "cornelian". The main colours of the illustrations are adapted to the atmosphere of the different festivals, deepening people's understanding of Chinese festivals while making more friends at home and abroad enjoy traditional Chinese festival culture.
- Inspiration
- The inspiration for the illustration design comes from traditional Chinese festivals. The strong atmosphere of festivals often makes people feel happy and joyful, and it is the responsibility and duty of every citizen to pass on the culture. Therefore, through illustration design, I hope to realise the effective innovation of traditional festival elements in contemporary times, spreading the energy of Chinese traditional festivals while making more people fall in love with Chinese festivals.
- Project Duration
- The work began in December 2022 at Northeastern University in Shenyang, Liaoning Province, China, and was completed in February 2022 at Northeastern University in Shenyang, Liaoning Province, China.
- Operation Flow
- The key to this design is to have a strong impact that appeals to the public, a high aesthetic effect that appeals to people's aesthetic sensibilities, and at the same time promotes cultural heritage while committing to its innovative development.
