1. Let's start by talking a little bit about your
childhood.
Growing up under the influence of my father, an
interior decoration designer and university lecturer, I immersed
myself in the world of fine arts from a young age, honing my skills
in painting at his mentor's studio. This early exposure steered my
educational path towards a focus on professional art, leading me to
pursue animation design at the esteemed Beijing Film Academy after
completing high school. Subsequently, I earned dual master's
degrees from Arts University Bournemouth in the UK and the
Academy of Art University in
San Francisco, specializing in
pre-production art design for film and animation. This foundation
extends into my work today in IP and product design.
2. Tell me about a project that you're mostly proud
of.
It has to be the creation of "A PU", the panda mascot
representing China's international
image of the Giant Panda! This endeavor, commissioned by the State
Council Information Office of China, spanned four months and drew over 2000
submissions from 22 countries. With a global audience vote and
evaluation by 13 industry experts, including designers of Olympic
mascots and esteemed professors, my design emerged victorious!
Crafting a panda mascot that resonated universally posed a
significant challenge amidst a sea of existing excellent designs. I
was thrilled my effort resulted in a successful design that
captured hearts worldwide.
3. What do you want people who come from various
backgrounds and communities to feel when they experience your
design?
Given my design approach focuses on practical
applications, I prioritize conveying a clear and consistent message
to my audience, imbued with universal values and sentiments.
Precision in communication stands as a pivotal aspect of my design
ethos. Thus, I aspire for my audience to accurately grasp the
intended information.
4. As an established artist, what advice would you
give to those who just started their career in the same
field.
I would suggest them cultivating patience in the
artistic journey. The essence of artistic design lies in drawing
inspiration from life's nuances and skillfully integrating them
into visual expressions. Embrace continuous learning and remain
receptive to novel concepts and approaches, for therein lies the
path to growth and innovation as a designer.
