Peat And Patty: Providing a Voice For Nature Through Animation

Peat and Patty is a 3D animated short story of a young scientist, Patty, and her pet parrot Peat, whose goal is to save their world from a dying ecosystem. Ultimately, they inadvertently receive help from a nearby polar bear which leads to the success of Patty's experiment. The purpose of this story is to highlight the dangers of global warming to our own ecosystem thus building eco-consciousness in viewers. We currently have natural disasters increasing in frequency, a rising global temperature, and pollution in our bodies of water (Rossati). By personifying nature, animation can invoke empathy from viewers towards their environmental issues in the real world. In Peat and Patty, Polar Bear is one of the personified animals I use to draw emotion from viewers by highlighting the bear in its melting ecosystem. Ideally, Peat and Patty will inspire viewers to empathize and reflect on how they can help find solutions to the temperature crisis on Earth before the effects of global warming are irreversible
