This Demo Reel (which you can check out with this long link) was made on November 2005 as part of my promotional package. It all started out as an experiment with texture and fun!
The idea behind it is to show me as I can only be – what you see is what you get. I like to have FUN with my work, it’s all about the passion. Each and every piece that you will see here was done out of my passion for each project.
Some of the pieces that you can see in this Demo Reel are the Award Bumper, Nayeli – an animation pitch/trailer, a made-up commercial for Skyttles, a pitch for The Tree of Life, Harmony: The Quest For Companionship, several photographs, drawings, websites, including the Canadian Film release of Eve & The Fire Horse, which will be later release in 2006.
Besides from loving to work with motion graphics, websites and taking pictures, I enjoy drawing and, most of all, writing. I haven’t written anything professionally, however, in the past 2 years I have finished two 100-pages stories (one in English, and another in Spanish), one paper of 21 pages on Numerology, two one-shot stories and two film scripts for Backbone Medley and Harmony.

Backbone Medley is a motion graphic piece by Jung-Kit Chan, in collaboration with Bun Lee and Kenny Lin.
Watch Backbone Medley by clicking this link.
It is a story written by me, about three different people – all linked by the metaphorical trascendance of butterflies.
It is a story about dreams, about choices, about the different lives of three very different people with different endings.
The creative process for this one was ideal. Jung-Kit Chan came to me and said he needed a story… a story about choices, so we sat together and brainstormed ideas, and came up with the basic idea for this. After several re-writes and the advice from Writing Consultant, Jennica Harper, we ended up with a script that Jung-Kit used to tell the story through motion.
The project earned Jung-Kit a series of awards, including his DD01 Graduate for Best Motion Design, a Special Jury Prize from ifva, the Hong Kong Independent Short Film & Video Awards, Best Motion Graphics by a Student at the CAEAA (Canadian Awards for the Electronic and Animated Arts), and a mention in the Illustration Annual in July’06 of Communication Arts.
