Because, Zeki was an experiment in papercraft puppet making undertaken in the class MDIA 2510,  Traditional Animation Techniques, at Ohio University. Under Jeremy Bessoff, I studied stop motion, photography, and puppet making. 

I pushed myself to see just how much detail I could get in the motion of my puppets, and how realistic and fluid I could make them. Additionally, I had a focus on embracing the medium, creating designs that use the medium to their benefit.
