Video Musics II: Sun Wu-Kong (2010)
Video Musics II: Sun Wu-Kong is a one-hour multimedia video opera based on the 1,500-page 16th-century Chinese novel The Journey to the West. The piece is a modernized and condensed lyrical interpretation of an ancient epic quest.
This work is the second in a series of animated video operas that re-imagine myths and folklore through modern techniques. During screenings, the film is accompanied by live musical performance. The live music mirrors the action exactly, and the animated characters' mouths are perfectly in sync with the sung lyrics.
