Would you know the color "sky blue" if you had never seen the sky in your life?
SKY BLUE is a love story set against the forces of destruction, a dystopian vision of Earth's destiny, yet ultimately a reminder of our hope for the future.
In the year 2140, mankind's reckless exploitation of the environment has sparked a planet-wide catastrophe that has shielded the sun from view and all but ended human civilization on earth. Only a small number of elites possessing power and technology have been able to thrive, building a magnificent, organic city named ECOBAN
A technological break-through in animation - the first HD "Multi Layered Animation"
SKY BLUE took more than seven years to complete, and employed many hundreds of Korea's leading animation artists and technicians in its production. The result is a unique composite of elements - live action miniatures and atmospheric elements shot on Panavision's 24p HDW-F900 camera, immersive 3D CGI backgrounds, and traditional 2D character animations - layered many dozens of times in each frame of HD digital film. SKY BLUE achieves a technical vision never before realized and achieved at a fraction of the budget usually engaged for CGI animation features. It is seen widely as a technical hallmark of a maturing Korean animation industry set to compete with the world's other leading animation nations.
