VoyageLA: Meet Cassie Shao
Artist & Animator, Cassie Shao.
Learn more about the creative process of animator Cassie Shao, director of Maggie Dave - I’m Not Ready, in this revealing and thought-provoking interview from VoyageLA:
“Making animations about my dreams, and the reality told through dream imagery have been extremely fun. I enjoy creating the otherworldly perspective. As I try to achieve that, I went down the road of mixing and blending all mediums I could think of and capturing the texture of everything I see fit. I find chaos and contradictions the most charming, and they are emphasized continuously more. I do realize that it creates some sort of distance as if examining something very personal from ten feet away, and it steers the audience away from designated emotions; but sometimes with this distance, sparks curiosity.”
