We All Live On The Earth

以不同動物的角度訴說人類的行動影響着大自然的生態平衡,同時侵犯了動物的生存空間。動物們只是希望不斷受到破壞的環境重新回復本來面貌,以及與同伴好好活下去。

The story aims to depict the impact of human actions on the delicate ecological balance of nature and the encroachment on animal habitats through the perspectives of different animals. The desires of these animals are clear and simple: they simply wish for the restoration of the continuously devastated environment and the opportunity to live in harmony with their companions.

「活下來的我們」

Synopsis 故事簡介.

「我們跟你們一樣, 都是一同生存在這個地方。」

一天,某個異星旅人來到美麗的地球時,在草原上看到有人類匿藏在草堆中,拿着槍埋伏……
砰!遠處的一隻老虎便成為了獵人的紀念品,而這生命的離去,原來只是為了滿足獵人的虛榮感。異星旅人聽到老虎臨終前奄奄一息的遺願,決定用他的能力把老虎復活成另一種形態,讓牠帶着新的使命,去保護自己的同伴。然而,受傷害的動物並非只有老虎……異星旅人在途中,還遇上了鯊魚北極熊鯨魚流浪貓等。這些「動物變體」面對殘酷的經歷後,得到了新生命,為了讓一眾動物邁向更美好的未來,牠們肩負起與人類對抗的責任。

"We, just like you, coexist in this place."

One day, a Traveler from another planet arrives on the beautiful Earth and witnesses humans hiding in the grass, armed and waiting in ambush...
Bang!! A tiger in the distance becomes a trophy for the hunter. The departure of this life was merely to satisfy the hunter's vanity. Before taking its last breath, the dying tiger expresses its final wish, and the Traveler, using their abilities, decides to resurrect the tiger in a different form, giving it a new purpose—to protect its fellow creatures.

However, it's not just the tiger that has been harmed. Along the way, the Traveler encounters sharks, polar bears, whales, cats, and more. These "animal hybrids" undergo cruel experiences but are granted new lives. They shoulder the responsibility to confront humans, striving to lead their fellow animals towards a brighter future.

About The Creator

Hong Kong illustrator who has been working on mobile game and toy illustration, as well as character and 2D animation design.
Edward started his original series We All Live On The Earth in 2021.

  • We all live on the earth 創作於 2010年修讀設計時的畢業功課,連同參加當年第一屆動漫節人形設計比賽(學生組),為比賽主題「地球補鑊隊」去設計了第一批的動物角色:老虎、北極熊、鸚鵡、鯊魚,故事講述人類為了發展而令到動物死亡再重生回來保衛自己的族群。

    同年獲得獎項:
    - HKDA Design Student of The Year
    - HKACG & HKSI Figure design competition award (Students Division)

    由於畢業後工作關係只能有限度地繼續創作這個故事,在不同的工作範疇認識了更多創作方式,經過重新包裝後直至2021年12月中旬重新再把we all live on the Earth帶到公眾平台展示,持續推出不同動物角色的故事。

    "We All Live on the Earth" was created as my final year project during my design studies in 2010. It was also part of my participation in the inaugural Anime Festival Character Design Competition (Student Category). The competition theme was "Earth Recovery Team," and I designed the first batch of animal characters: Tiger, Polar Bear, Parrot, and Shark. The story revolves around how humans, in their pursuit of development, cause the death and subsequent rebirth of animals, who then rise to defend their own species.

    In the same year, I received the following awards:
    - HKDA Design Student of The Year
    - HKACG & HKSI Figure Design Competition Award (Student Division)

    Due to work commitments after graduation, I could only continue working on this project to a limited extent. However, I explored various creative approaches in different professional fields. After rebranding and repackaging, I presented "We All Live on the Earth" on public platforms again in mid-December 2021. I continue to release stories featuring different animal characters.
