A Series of Backdrops Depicting the Settings for 12 Intricately Themed Choreographies

True to its title, the program’s central theme revolves around young men leaving their homes to join the army. While designing the animated backdrops for the live performance by Croatia's national folk ensemble LADO, we aimed to create a design that was both simple and impactful, enhancing the elaborate production titled “The Recruits Are Coming.” To bring each of the twelve choreographies to life, we highlighted cultural artifacts and distinctive features of specific geographical regions, further enriching the setting and atmosphere of the performance.
