The Kukunochi film is the final capstone project for many of the students completing bachelor degrees at SAE Perth.
Synopsis: The story presents an arrogant girl, Katsumi, who learns a thing or two from Yamato, who embodies kindness and humility. Their unbalanced relationship is encapsulated through their sparring as they practice Kendo. Katsumi’s arrogance beats down on Yamato again and again. However, even when beaten repeatedly, Yamato’s determination never fazes.
They emotionally evolve after having experienced a confrontation with an angered spirit called the Kukunochi, where Katsumi learns the true meaning of humility.

Violet Hubris is a cosmic action-horror game exploring humanity’s thirst for knowledge, power, and belonging in a harsh universe. Created by SAE Melbourne students – this project features work from cross-disciplines, meaning students in different courses collaborated to bring the project to life.
We love the motion, fantasy, colour and drama of this one. Games, Animation, Audio and Design students collaborated on this project.
