Animating Dodos for 'Don't do the Dodo'

I've been given some dodo to animate!
Don't do the Dodo is a project in the hands of S.T.A.G animations for Don't do the Dodo, which supports grassroots projects and spreads awareness of endangered species. The animation is narrated by Bill Oddie and is a very exciting project.

The dodos I've been working on so far are the balloon dodo, the cliff bouncing dodo, head in the sand dodo and the cute little dodo behind the big flappy one (by Matt Garbutt, who also animated the tree-flung dodo). All the cutout dodos were designed and rigged by Emma Cosgrove based on the dodos in this book by Don't do the Dodo.


There's still some work to do on these so I'll be updating here soon with some tweaks and changes and possibly a dodo or more come to life.
