Pause Original “Cyberpunk Shaihaiching” by Lei Alucard

Chinese motion designer Lei Alucard (Peng Lei) foreshadows the 2020 Pause Fest this February in Melbourne with an atmospheric, thoughtful, and wonderfully detailed (if somewhat dystopian) CG film.

From Pause: “Our ancestors have always believed in gods and demons throughout the time, they named them, remember their deeds and passed down the stories from one generation to another for thousands of years.

“Those mythical gods and demons could be created by science and technology. They can divide humankind into good and evil.”
