I have the aired footage before (first five minutes of the YouTube video), but only stumbled upon the “behind the scene” interview just now (starts about 5 minutes into the video), which is probably even more interesting than aired footage.

Very nice piece, upbeat, lively, very original, and comtemporary.

Interesting “outro” as well, don’t miss it.

Very impressed with the quality of some of the animation coming out of China these days. The production quality is absolutely top notch.
This one is “Episode 16” from a fictional series drawn from historical elements from the transition period between the end of the Han dynasty and the start of the “Three Kingdom” period. Great concept, great story/script, great character design and character development, masterful storytelling, fluid action design, convincing period costume designs, convincing set/background designs, superb animation and rendering, convincing facial expressions (very hard to do with CGI animation especially when the underlying style is “realism,” this is the best I’ve seen yet).
Also, careful scholarship: at the end of every episode there is one or more “flash cards” providing footnotes mapping key characters/events to records in historical literature.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

@George-K The mask is part of her brand; as far as I can tell, ever since her fist YouTube video, she’s always masked; quite often different masks for different videos.
Compare to Peter Bence’s “Best It” cover. Bence also made a virtuosic, creative rearrangement, mainly for piano, but also uses other mechanical aids, including looping electronics. (I have linked to Bence’s cover before, so not repeating it here.)
