The second and final group project of my 2nd year (of 3) on animation course in uni (Escape Studios). This time the brief was to create a wildlife documentary or mockumentary.
So I thought - let's do a parody of Planet Earth but why not take it to a different planet.
And yes, Planet Earth was made by BBC not National Geographic but I couldn't resist after a thought of "Universal Geographic" and that logo came to my mind.
