Erjie Chen (RJ)

Hello, this is Erjie. I’m a multidisciplinary designer with a passion for crafting narratives through visual communication. My expertise encompasses graphic design, art direction and 3D design. Throughout my career, I have focused on exploring emerging forms of interaction, blending visual and sound experiences to create engaging projects. Developing content that takes people on a unique storytelling journey is something I’m always interested in undertaking.

Landmark

In the fog, the contrast between light and shadow is particularly evident within the city’s dense skyscrapers. An unfinished tall building stands in the heart of the city, called the Landmark. One day a mysterious film appears above the building, which slowly falls and seals the Landmark. In the silence the Landmark is preserved as a monument for eternity until it is remembered again.

Landmark is an animated short film. By vacuum-preserving an abandoned building that should have been a landmark, the abandoned building in the vacuum becomes a landmark in another way. Perhaps someday in the future, the preserved unfinished structure can be transformed and used. In this way the project Landmark is hoping to raise awareness of the uncontrolled construction. It also aims to inspire people to think about their relationship with their surroundings and the sustainability of space.

The Landmark Building

Do Not Answer

Four light years away, under the dominance of three irregularly moving suns, the Trisolaran Civilisation has been destroyed and reborn hundreds of times, and was forced to flee from their home planet. Deep in the Greater Khingan Mountain, the first message of humankind was launched at the speed of light into the depths of the universe. The message was eventually intercepted by the Trisolaran Civilisation, and an appalling reply was received – Do not answer!

Do Not Answer combines editorial and 3d design to produce a series of posters for a fictional film. The project is based on the sci-fi writer Liu Cixin’s novel, The Three-Body Problem, by constructing four highly dramatic and tense science fictional concepts that recreate the scenes described in the novel when humankind first comes into contact with an alien civilisation.
