Althoug im interesting about diorama animation，I don’t want to just make a 2D animation, and I think this technique will be more interesting. In fact, this inspiration is come from a film Pride and Prejudice and Zombies (2016) In this film, director used a short animation to introduce the whole story, and this animation is looks like diorama, I really like this technique to display story and attract people's attention. I said I want to combine Easter fairy tale and western culture to creative a story, diorama also is unique way to display my idea.

When i decided characters,now i need to think about which way i want to use to display my story.First,im interesting about Diorama.
Aftereffects Space Diorama Animation
“Diorama can either refer to a 19th-century mobile theatre device, or, in modern usage, a three-dimensional full-size or miniature model, sometimes enclosed in a glass showcase for a museum.” It seems like still pictures animation. According to Stephen (2006) They were extremely popular during the first half of the 20th century, both in the USA and UK, later on giving way to television, film, and new perspectives on science. Moreover, I research some short animations

I need to create the Qilin's character
The Qilin may have the body of a deer, or an ox, or a horse.The body of the Qilin is also covered with the scales of a fish, and is often enveloped in fire.
As the Qilin is believed to be a benevolent creature, its appearance is regarded as an auspicious sign. It is also believed that the Qilin would only appear during the reign of a good ruler, or shortly before the birth or death of a sage.

I do some research of Qilin
Qilin
in Chinese mythology, the unicorn whose rare appearance often coincides with the imminent birth or death of a sage or illustrious ruler.A qilin has a single horn on its forehead, a yellow belly, a multicoloured back, the hooves of a horse, the body of a deer, and the tail of an ox. Gentle of disposition, it never walks on verdant grass or eats living vegetation.

Inspiration
The film Seven(1995) is my inspiration
Seven means The Seven Deadly Sins - Pride、Wrath、Sloth、Greed、Envy、Gluttony、Lust

Figure1: Film (sources:https://oddreaddotcom.files.wordpress.com/2012/06/seven_1995_3.jpg）
These seven deadly sins come from human nature，is root of them.
Qilin may be terrifying to behold, legends describe it as a gentle and peaceful creature. In Buddhist depictions of the creature, for instance, the Qilin is shown to be walking on clouds, as it refuses to harm even a single blade of grass by walking on it.In the meantime,in some stories, the Qilin is capable of incinerating people, and possesses a variety of supernatural powers.These abilities are only revealed, however, when it is required to defend innocent people from the malice of evil-doers.
According to Richard(2002)Aoyin resembled an ox but with four horns and hair like a straw.And cry like a infant.But the Aoyin was a predacious animal and known to kill and devour humans.Also was a cruel monster.
Moreover,The film Seven(1995) is my inspiration
Seven means The Seven Deadly Sins - Pride、Wrath、Sloth、Greed、Envy、Gluttony、Lust
So Aoyin is one of them.
I combine easter fairy tale and western culture to creative a story and talk about set off to symbolize good triumphing over evil. And metaphor someone who is a generous self-sacrificing man.

The gentle and benevolent Qilin of Chinese mythology
Chinese mythology is full of fantastic supernatural and mythical creatures. Whilst the Western world is probably most familiar with the dragon and the phoenix, there are other equally interesting, though less well-known mythological beings. One of these is the Qilin.
In general, the Qilin is said to have an equine-like body. Thus, the Qilin may have the body of a deer, or an ox, or a horse. The body of the Qilin is also covered with the scales of a fish, and is often enveloped in fire. As for its head, it is quite similar to the Chinese dragon, yet, even this feature has its variations over time.
Some Qilin, for example, have been depicted with a single horn. Hence, the Qilin has been compared to the European unicorn, and has been dubbed as the ‘Chinese Unicorn’, while others are shown with antlers. Nevertheless, it has been suggested that the Qilin and the Chinese Unicorn are two separate mythological creatures altogether.
