In the age when mass communication via television hasn’t been developed, the shadow play was an extremely popular entertainment ever. As time goes by,it gradually declined. To promote the Taiwanese folk art－Shadow Play, we combine with Kaohsiung chef cultural festival “Yiya” to show it to the consumers again. By reformed and detachable puppet, it’s easy for consumers to manipulate and enhance parent-children interaction. You can experience and enjoy shadow play culture at home.

在過去電視媒體尚未發達的年代，皮影戲曾是十分受歡迎的娛樂活動。以「儛影」為題，推廣臺灣民俗技藝「皮影戲」，其名係指戲偶於影窗上並藉由人實際操作舞動演繹之意。「儛影」亦結合高雄廚師文化節慶「易牙節」作為視覺設計主軸之脈絡。視覺包含戲偶設計如：易牙、齊桓公、管仲等。其皮影材質別於傳統水牛皮、棉線、木棍製成，特別選用塑膠片及兩腳釘固定，解決了易損、質量及製作的困難度。而戲偶包裝有精裝及簡易版兩款，分別是木盒及牛皮板材質，內附可折式易牙廟外觀之影窗、易牙節圖文繪本等。「儛影」就是將民俗技藝再次重現於消費者面前，透過改良的戲偶、可拆式組裝，更便利消費者自行操作又可促進親子互動，在家就可體驗及欣賞皮影文化。
