Shingo Tamagawa's Vision: The Influence of Puparia

A few years ago, I watched a documentary by Shingo Tamagawa, not knowing much about him, and he became one of the most important influences in my decision to pursue a career in animation.  Tamagawa is the talented animator behind the three minute short film PUPARIA, released in 2020. The title refers to the hard outer shell that pupae form during metamorphosis, suggesting that it explores themes of transformation, metamorphosis, and the nature of reality.  About the Creator

Shingo Tamagawa had always enjoyed drawing as a child, and by the time he reached high school, he was impressed and inspired by renowned animators and creators such as Hayao Miyazaki and Hideaki Anno, encouraging him to begin working in the industry. However, Tamagawa began developing fear of losing admiration for his work and went on a hiatus. He made the most out of his break from drawing, and naturally, began to work independently, intending to leave a trace of his mindset through the animation medium which led to PUPARIA. Tamagawa created the film to recover the value lost during production due to the industry's emphasis on efficiency and profitability. As a result, he decided to create something entirely artistic and personal, without any commercial purpose.

The Making of Puparia

Unlike other productions created by large studios and groups of creators, Puparia was painstakingly handcrafted over three years, entirely by Tamagawa himself, combining traditional and digital mediums with precision. Tamagawa, used a variety of techniques to create his backgrounds, including watercolor, gouache, and digitally scanned each frame for composition. This gives the film a soft, organic appearance while still producing a sharp and detailed image.

Tamagawa, who used to take the task of cleaning and scanning drawings in the world-renown sunrise studio, decided it was a "necessary step" to leverage all his experience into his independent project while allocating some time to the studio to manage his finances. Most of his approaches and solutions found him during his progress, working on each scene until he reached a point of satisfaction and instead of following a strict storyboard, he developed the scenes as he drew. An Overview: Key Elements and Themes of "Puparia"

The beginning of the film sets the mood with a girl sitting in a beautiful, sunny place. There's a strange creature behind her that looks like a giant butterfly or moth. This mysterious moment symbolizes the pupa, the middle stage of transformation. "Puparia" employs symbolism to represent the mysterious and transformative aspects of life, depicting the transition from larva to adult as a metaphor for change and growth. The film's captivating hand-drawn animation transports viewers on an emotional journey, prompting reflection on human existence and the role of art in deepening understanding. It encourages reflection on the meaning of metamorphosis in both personal and universal contexts, revealing art's ability to bring out emotions and provoke self-reflection The portrayal of puparia as haunting yet illuminating beings draws interest and wonder about life's complexities, subtly encouraging exploration of change and growth. Final Thoughts (and My Favorite Screencaps)

My favorite aspect of the film was that, as I previously stated, it was hand drawn by a single person. Tamagawa portrays the strength to work independently, pursuing personal goals while also balancing the real world and responsibilities. The film's other feature was its lack of dialogue, which immersed the audience in its visuals and abstract concepts. The creator successfully conveys the intended message and the meaning behind it, making up for the lack of values lost as he describes. I have nothing but admiration and respect for the creator, who inspires me in my animation pursuits.
