Nothing like a little After Effects to help you (not) sleep

I came up with this idea out of the blue and got so excited about it I started working on it right away. After I got about 1/4 done, I decided I might as well finish it while I'm on a roll. Well now here it is, and here I am, at 5:42am - tired.

Enjoy!

The Maori Creation Myth of Rangi, the Sky Father, and Papa, the Earth Mother, being separated by their son Tane, God of the Forest. The Maori look to the greak Kauri trees found on the North Island as Tane's pillars, still holding Rangi apart from Papa.
