The First Fairy Tale (Прва Бајка/Prva Bajka in Serbian) is an animation project loosely inspired by old Slavic folktales and tradition.


The animation techniques vary from procedural in Blender's force fields and geometry nodes' particle effects, through simulated cloth in Marvelous Designer, to the character rig and the system of sub-paths parented to it.
