    im kazakh, and while we do not share a language we shared a lifestyle. Being nomads, yurts, accesories, family dynamics. What a beautiful story, thank you so much for sharing. This has inspired me to create something for my culture.

    I would watch an entire movie and a half about this, but the truth is you just needed 7 and a half minutes to make one feel more than multibillion dollar studios have using an entire franchises. You can feel the love oozing out of every frame and line of this short. Congratulations on finishing this wonderful work of art and thank you for sharing it with the world!

      It is inspired by the folk song nuun zaya. So maybe try listening to it too

    • @hoolidii
      @hoolidii 20 дней назад +1

      ​@chaennelchaennel, i think it's a spirit,since her mom is in heaven. Mongols believe that there is a spirit in every nature, things like forest, lake, etc. Since her name is Navch(means leaf) she is probably forest spirit. And Navchaa is saying that she will be forever there for her indicating and representing that she is our mother nature.

    Around 2020 I exposed myself to more cultures around the world besides the very very famous ones, and one of them was Mongolia’s culture. I didn’t quite understand at the time, but mongolia is so much more beautiful and diverse than what I thought 4 years ago. The more I learn of the country and immerse myself in a sprinkle of music and google searches, the more excited I get. This was a gem I found after digging for asian 2d student animation, and I was left speechless. I hope to find more student work, and I hope your success in bringing such designs to life leads you to thrive in your future!

    The artwork is beautiful. Love the play on colors. The ending birch tree choral sounds really nice.
    Two moments really stood out for me. The sliding between winter and summer and Nuunzaya growing up. Starting by the puppy becoming an adult dog. That was wonderful.
    And I absolutely love the painting of the yurts and nomads on the wall of the ger. With a drawing of Nuunzaya and Nabq. Love that part.

    Hello, I cannot find the words to describe how lovely this thesis film is. I’ve personally always have been enamoured by animation and to see this lovely piece of art representing my culture and voiced acted beautifully brought me to tears. I’d like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for truly capturing the beauty of the Mongolian culture and countryside, this made me yearn to go back to Mongolia. I enjoyed watching every moment of this and I’m sure there are many great things waiting for you. Never give up on your passions.

    This is more beautiful and impactful than over half of the animated dredge that's come out of the animation industry in the last 20 years alone. Not only is your style and technique a breath of fresh air, its story is perfectly balanced, the plot and symbolic imagery aren't beaten over our heads and then explained to us explicitly in the dialogue. The voice acting is so organic and natural and it just adds to the premium folkish whimsy of the people who you portrayed. And, of course, the animation and artistry in and of itself and that it was done all by you alone is a high achievement. I've watched so many of these CalArts shorts over the years and I have to say this is one that will actually stick with me. I'm obsessed and need a whole 90 minute feature length film where we get to see the path Nuunzaya took through life. Absolutely incredible.

As someone who’s not very in touch with parts of my (non ethnic majority) heritage, it delights me to see an animator depicting their culture so beautifully and proudly.

Isn’t it amazing how many people think they’re the same but end up being completely different? I think it is
