Ink Wash Martial Arts Horse Character

A short martial arts animation in the style of Chinese ink painting
An elderly man wielded a bamboo staff, executing a set of techniques with no opponent. When demonstrating his martial arts moves, his moves were sharp and decisive.
 When the old man wields the stick, the tip has ink particle effects and a smudge. Every time the stick drags on the ground, an ink stain forms. Finally, the camera gradually zooms in to create a downward view from directly above. As the move demonstration ends, the ink mark formed on the ground by the stick is a traditional Chinese character for horse (viewed from above). The old man's final move lands exactly as the last stroke of the character for horse
Editing storyboarding offers dynamic tension, multiple shots, and rapid camera transitions
