Abstract

‘Who ate the apple?’ is an animation film which is based on Freudian psychoanalytical framework of Id, Ego and Superego. This film incorporates two styles of animation – Pixelation and Traditional hand drawn animation for expressing the narrative visually. The film’s narrative metaphorically represents the inter-relation between the mental areas defined by Freud. The film is meant for viewers of any age group, primarily for those who are interested in knowing the gist of Freud’s aforementioned work. The narrative talks about the protagonist being in a dilemma of eating an apple which is left in front of him by its owner who is a stranger to the protagonist. The film is an amalgamation of indoor studio photography and traditional animation, to create a blend which is suitable for expressing this narrative creatively.
