This team is the most passionate of the lot – seriously folks!
Leader of the bunch (of Passion fruits) – Mabel Wong Xin Yuan.
I could tell from talking with these four young ladies about the digital 2D animation that they have been working on for the past three weeks of production.
The title of their 1-minute animation is “Shields of Singapore”.
Using the allegory of an umbrella to express their main idea, the theme is that “Everyone is a shield of Singapore, no matter rain or shine”.
And this is embodied in what citizens do in their everyday lives, manifesting itself in how Singaporeans help one another in sticky situation and even in the littlest things – shielding one another from harm and giving a hand when needed.
