Martial arts going animated
A new series that combines animation with martial and folk arts 鈥 the first of its kind in China 鈥 will soon be launched on popular Chinese video sites.
The series, 鈥淟et鈥檚 Learn Martial Arts,鈥 was produced by the city鈥檚 radio station and financially supported by the Jing鈥檃n Culture and Tourism Bureau.
It tells the story of a group of children who find a martial arts school in a concrete jungle and constantly challenge themselves. It combines Chinese art such as traditional opera and shadow puppetry, a heritage-listed ancient form of storytelling dating back 2,000 years.
鈥淲e combine old storytelling forms with today鈥檚 popular animation to teach children about our tradition,鈥 said Shen Qijie, who oversees the series.
鈥淪hadow puppetry itself is not attractive to today鈥檚 young children, but in this animation, the puppets are designed in a new colorful style,鈥 said renowned cartoon artist Sun Zongqing.
The first season, which consists of 20 five-minute episodes, will debut on SMG鈥檚 BestTV + in December, and will premiere on iQiyi, Youku and Tencent next year.
