2025.

POPMART 「SKULLPANDA·The Mirage Series」 , A Cinematic Journey Through Eastern Mysticism.

Through veils of swaying shadows, SKULLPANDA waltzes into the mansion's slumber.

This blind box collection employs scent, sound, and sight as conduits to resurrect twelve "chrono-artifacts" once traded in ancient Eastern and Western marketplaces. Bathed in an ethereal fusion of Eastern mysticism and sensory interplay, each artifact—rooted in traditional Chinese culture—transforms into a breathing entity within SKULLPANDA’s dreamscape, murmuring millennia-old tales amidst incense mist and shimmering light.

Moving beyond spatial ambiance into the Eastern philosophy of "partition without separation," we’ve crafted an immersive, traversable realm of fantasy. Here, the tendrils of incense entwine with the vibrato of panpipes, while shadow puppetry flickers across revolving lanterns—"Scenery Within View" becomes a liminal corridor where object and consciousness, the self and the world, blur into one.

This CGI short film follows the awakening of "Illusion & Reality" (Hidden Edition) through a sensory odyssey steeped in Eastern mystique:

1 | Inhale the Soul · The Frame
2 | Listen Beyond Time · The Pan Flute
3 | Gaze Into Truth · The Skeleton Fantasy Show
4 | Cycle of Light · The Carousel Lantern
5 | The Sensory Apotheosis · The Butterfly Dream

-

As dusk descends, whispers of the mundane world fade.
The marketplace thrums, a tapestry of fleeting shadows.
Lanterns ignite the twilight,
while fading incense imprints its patina on ancient relics.
Breath and smoke intertwine— Behind the curtain, vision trembles.
What is seen? What is dreamed?

Within this Eastern liminality of "Scenery Within View,"
join SKULLPANDA to crystallize fragments of time.

POPMART 「SKULLPANDA·邸语」东方玄幻CGI短片 ——
帘影层叠，随SKULLPANDA翩跹暂入邸中梦

此套盲盒以嗅觉、听觉、视觉为媒介，精选12种曾在古代东西市流通的"时空信物"，在东方玄幻色彩的感官融合中，将它们重新赋予生命。每一件器物都源自中国传统文化，却在SKULLPANDA的梦境里蜕变为会呼吸的灵体，在香雾与光影间低语着千年故事。

相较于往期对空间氛围的塑造，以"隔而不断"的东方空间哲学，构建了一个可穿行的玄幻场域。当薰笼的氤氲缠绕排箫的声纹，当走马灯的光影投射在幻戏图上，人与世界的关系，外物与主观意念的关联，观中景便成了连接虚实的神秘甬道。

本次CGI视觉短片跟随「幻与实」（隐藏款）的自我意识，展开一场东方玄幻色彩的感官融合之旅：

1 | 以鼻观心·薰笼
2 | 以耳通灵·排箫
3 | 以眼证道·骷髅幻戏图
4 | 光景轮回·走马灯
5 | 五感归一·幻与实

夕阳渐沉，喧嚣声掠过耳畔
市集熙攘，人潮涌动如织
灯火点亮暮色，
焚香的余韵沾染古老的器物
氤氲的烟云与呼吸交错
恍然间若隔帘窥景
难辨虚实

在「观中景」的东方秘境中
与SKULLPANDA一起，封存往日光影。
