My final project show a little doll in the dark room. It’s a plain doll, without hair, with no eyes and no clothes. It has no name, no personality, just a dummy doll. Different colored snakes start to crawl his way and then they attack the doll. After the doll falls his head cracks open and his eyes start to blink. The doll turns around and rips off his costume, showing that there was a man under it all this time. In this animation different colored snakes symbolize connections that we make in our lives. Blue is for family, yellow is for community, orange is for friends, red is for love and purple is for our interests. After they embedded in the doll’s body, this doll gains consciousness showcasing that we are made of connections. The main message of the animation is that connections make us humans.
