Yao-Chinese Folktales

This anthology series draws from the deep well of ancient Chinese mythology to build eight isolated worlds. By applying modern animation techniques to traditional folktales, the project shifts between eerie atmosphere and philosophical inquiry. The visuals often lean into the textures of ink wash painting or hyper-detailed character design, grounding surreal encounters in a familiar aesthetic language.

The diverse narrative styles allow each segment to operate with its own internal logic. Whether exploring the nuances of monster lore or the constraints of rural society, the series maintains a consistent tone of introspection. Lin Qiang and the rest of the cast lend their voices to characters that navigate these folklore-inspired environments, creating a bridge between historical storytelling and contemporary fantasy.
