“The Ultimate Bully” is a satirical short animated film about a small boy who learns the essential principles needed to be the perfect bully at school, but everything changes when he gets carried away with his newly-found cathartic hobby. The concept is to highlight the idea of moral disengagement; showing how much “fun” bullying is in the eyes of a bully, and in the end show the disturbing side of the victims.
The film is still a work-in-progress; so far, the rough animation has been completed.
