The Jester's Revolt

Introduction

Our PBL project is a motivational 2D animation about humility and the golden rule. The story follows a court jester who causes rebellion against his authorities. One day when he fails to entertain the royal family, he is put in jail to await execution. As he nears his death, the citizens of the town are inspired to take action against the injustices put on them by their selfish caretakers, freeing the Jester in the process.

Driving Question

How can we teach others the importance of having a low view of one's importance and the golden rule through a 2D animation?
