Soulthread

SoulThread: Echoes of Reality is a 3D virtual short film that explores the interweaving of emotion, identity and virtual fashion in the digital age through Ben's eyes. Ben is a video blogger whose daily life is gradually replaced by an emotional state represented by symbolic clothing. Through the emotional expression of anthropomorphic clothing, the film shows how Ben moves from a numb emotional state to a gradual reconnection with himself and reality. Clothes are not only decorations in the film, but also the external embodiment of Ben's emotions, showing his inner emotional fluctuations through unique virtual scenes and abstract narratives. These anthropomorphic clothes sense and record the emotional atmosphere of their surroundings, while conveying deep inner emotions through expressions and changes. Each scene in the short film symbolizes the stage of Ben's emotional transformation, from the emotional rebirth of the washing machine, to the social pressures embodied in the subway crush, until finally reconciling with his true self. Through artistic visual language, metaphorical narrative and innovative interpretation of virtual fashion, the film explores the fusion of virtual and reality, as well as the profound significance of emotional design in the digital age. Ultimately, Ben's journey is not only a personal emotional exploration, but also reveals how virtual clothing can serve as an emotional medium, connecting people with their hearts and people with the world.
