The legend of Situ Bagendit is an Indonesian folklore that not only has cultural values, but also rich moral values. Its function as folklore can be used as social control in behavior and action. The era of globalization that brings so many media without exception will certainly bring many foreign views, thoughts, ideologies that are not in line with the nation's moral values. This includes the emergence of attitudes with hedonism and apathy, which have even been warned by the moral values contained in the Legend of Situ Bagendit. Elementary school children in grades 1-3 now tend to be more familiar with foreign stories compared to local folklore, there is a need for the media to revive children's interest in Indonesian folklore. Children themselves like animated media as a story carrier because of its ease of enjoyment, especially when it is available on video applications that facilitate children's freedom of viewing. Data studies, interviews, questionnaires and comparisons of similar works are carried out as the basis for design, both in terms of content, audience and media. The design was carried out by combining wayang and Pepako techniques in the form of paper puppets. Combining the advantages of the iconographic value of wayang and the modern value of Pepako in paper puppet animation videos is considered to be able to convey the morals and stories of the Legend of Situ Bagendit effectively.
