Lullabies, Wishes and Imaginations

Written in the scope of the book, this text explains the historical process of animation, examples of animation cinema from silent and sound eras as well as the development of animation cinema in Turkey. Techniques used in animation cinema were described, and the Rotoscope technique used in the video-animation project was elaborated. In the animations Rotoscope was applied with the drawings over the camera shots. The video project made in scope of this book depicted the lives of two characters' (man and woman) flashbacks/dreams. The real lives were depicted with live-action shootings to express them as close to reality as possible, without intervening the events occurred. For flashbacks/dreams, animation was used, since it is a suitable tool to depict the dream and a new reality with abstractions occurred in the process of re-creation with drawings. In the project, some ambient sounds as well as lullabies were used. Lyrics of the lullaby tell a mother's giving warm wishes to her child and her heartfelt wishes for her child to have a good life.
