The Lantern is a computer animated master's thesis film by Ting Liu at Rochester Institute of Technology. This work creates an impressionistic and metaphysical atmosphere as the story reveals the relationship between a grandfather and his granddaughter and the promise she has made to make a lantern for her grandfather in order to conjure her memories of him. The Lantern is a reminiscence of the filmmaker's own childhood memories of her grandfather and the Chinese lanterns. This Thesis Report includes a discussion of the creation process of The Lantern as well as the original proposal, concept visualization artworks, and color stills from the film.
