Description
Finally! My first animation on DeviantART
"To go beyond" was my final year project in university, it was my second piece of 2D animation that I actually complete.
It is just a very simple story set in a corner of the world about the affection between two individuals. Lives fade, lives continue, live to go beyond.
The whole piece was done in Photoshop and Imageready mainly, and edited in After Effect.
And for the music..
The background music is composed and copyrighted by me.

I played few songs impromptu – freely and without any written score, but stick to the same rough melody that is in my head for long time.
After that I extracted 3 minutes from the songs I played (around 30 minutes in total.)

This really touched me, lurazeda. The imagery is so subtle and yet very powerful and the music is stunningly beautiful. What a great talent you have. Thanks for sharing your work with us. What is the significance to the story of the butterfly at the beginning of the piece?

Um actually in Chinese Culture, a moth (it's not a butterfly lol) was sometimes symbolize as a human spirit, flying up to the heaven.
It maybe a kind of foreshadowing of the old lady's death later.
