Made by multi BAFTA and Emmy winning Blue Zoo Animation, Silly Duck is a series of animated episodes on YouTube. Using MoPo the creators were able to perform a minutes worth of animation each day, creating each episode in days rather than weeks.

You move your hand, it moves the puppet -there's no delay.
Which is really fun to use.”
