Director’s Note
Born in the iGeneration, our life and smartphone have linked inextricably. some said the average person spends four years of his life looking down at his smartphone. it's kind of ironic. There are iPhone, iPad, iMac. Everything is i, but the truly I is fading out. Technology makes our lives more convenient, but it nibble our hearts at the same time. The world has been changed, social application comes first beyond everything, while there are plenty smartphone zombies on the street and they seem not live in the real world.
Therefore, we created this animation to make people realize that how ridiculous Internet generation are. iWorld maybe fascinating, crazy and wonderful, but we should let go, Find back the Initially I. Live a life you will remember.
This animation is about a parallel world which in our smartphone. There are some interesting creature and they have their own civilization. To draw people's attention, we chose a simple short comedy story. We hope that people can have a healthy social life.
