Jun seo Hahm is an animator, designer, and media artist based in Seoul, South Korea. This piece is a short film, entitled “Walking Follows Form”. I like the film because of the way it uses the modelling process to inform the animation. The way each model moves is based on it’s structure or shape, and this means that each character moves in really strange and humorous ways. I like the idea of using loose sets of rules to make art, and this is a good example of that.

Hahm’s fascination with cartoony forms and visuals really comes across in the film, along with a strong interest in the forms of the 3d objects. His models are also incredibly smooth, avoiding the sharp geometric style that some other new media artists are drawn to.

I don’t know what exact tools Hahm uses to create his work, but I’d imagine a 3d modelling program like Blender.
