Seniman Bocah Studio entrusted Niyu Studio to bring Kalimbo, the mascot representing Borneo Island, to life as part of the “Mascot Design of All Indonesian Islands” series.

This concept features the Hornbill, an iconic bird of Borneo known for its majestic beak and resonant call echoing through the rainforest. Through animation, Kalimbo is portrayed with proud and graceful movements, reflecting the strength and cultural pride of Borneo.

The creative process involved character rigging for natural wing and head motion, expressive animation to emphasize the Hornbill’s personality, and final compositing to create a vibrant and dynamic visual identity.
