When the bird flu virus is spreading all over a village, the government announces the killing and burning of all chickens to avoid further spreading of the virus. While people are killing chickens, one chicken from a poultry farm decides to escape but has to face the cruel butcher who tries to kill him. The objective of this project was to make an animated short film based on the life of a chicken, with some humorous elements in it. Another objective was to use the principles of animation in this project and to explore and improve one’s colouring style.
