Entropy
Hand-drawn Cel Animation
2019
Entropy is randomness or disorder in a system. I made this short animation sequence as a senior year graphic design assignment. The brief was to demonstrate the concept of entropy by using the animation medium.

Sketches
When I first heard about entropy, I immediately searched for "Entropy basic examples". I was wondering if there was a way to simplify its randomness.
However, more I read about it, more complex it got. I was intrigued by how weird entropy feels, and how natural it is.
Storyboard
I gathered various elements from daily life: Fire, boiling water, group of people, cracking glass. I wanted to combine random entropy happenings into a sequence to shock the viewer.
Keywords that describe my project the best are: Uneasiness, unexpectedness and unique.
