Mr. Chen Xi and Mr. An Xu are animation filmmakers from China. Starting from 2008, they cooperatively made independent animation films. They also designed this poster together. Mr. An Xu provided the original ideas, while Mr. Chen Xi created the scenarios and drew it.
There are lots of people in this picture, everyone with 3D glasses. Maybe each of them sees a different world, true or virtual. Each time you watch the picture again, you’ll find some new and interesting details, just like reading a comic book. The designers hope that this work will keep you watching.
In the picture, some persons are playing mahjong. There are graphics on each tile. When arranging the mahjong tiles in a line, it creates a sequence of graphics, just like an animation. In the game, the player should keep an eye on his own tiles, with another on the others. This is very similar to the filmmaker, who creates art by himself, but gets influenced by others. They are directors, but also audience. For some persons mahjong may be a game, a competition, or an interesting party, just like the animation festival.
