Kakapookie is a short animation created by Kateryna Fatnieva for the 2D Animation module.  The story features Kakapookie, who is based on the rare Kakapo, a ground dwelling parrot.  In Kateryna’s story the bird turns out not to be quite as cute and cuddly as it looks!  The illustrations were created using Illustrator before being animated in After Effects.
