Congratulations to the crew at Mechanic Animation for delivering the Kiwi & Cat Matariki series. For us at Mechanic its been a special project as we look to rebuild the studio after the pandemic. Big thank you to Jose, Michael and Natalie whom drove the team forward each week.

For our international followers, Matariki is the celebration of the Maori New Year which coinsides with the Matariki star cluster (also known as Pleiades in Greek mythology) rising in the New Zealand skies.

And thanks to our partners for the opportunity to work on this NZ iconic brand.
