Description: It was the last quarter of the year. Final exams were two weeks away. Students were working hard on their exams. Graduates were turning a new page in their lives. Could anything else compare to a prayer tree, one that was located at the gateway of the library, and convenient for students to pray for the best of their exams and future? The tree is special for its combination of tradition and modernity. Its life-size body allows viewers to have a realistic sense of tying their wish notes to the tree in person. Taking advantage of projection and motion picture technologies, it also enables viewers to see their dreams come true through the flowering effects produced digitally.

A collaborate work with other three of my classmates.
