AN ORIGINAL ANIMATED FILM / IN DEVELOPMENT
In a city where color shapes belonging, a girl searching for acceptance discovers what it costs to become someone else.
THE STORY
Maya believes she must change herself to be loved. As she moves through Prismara, the color she takes from others gives her something she has always wanted, and risks everything that makes her herself.
The Color Thief is in story and visual development. Designs and production methods shown here are exploratory.
CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT
The approved character reference guides her silhouette, costume, curl shapes and rich dark-brown complexion. Future 3D work will use this design as its guide.

Our aim is to develop a practical creative pipeline around the film. PatchWork is the first application we're sharing publicly.
PatchWork is our spline-first modeling application. We plan to use the team's character work to demonstrate its modeling approach.
Perform Pro, Vivid, and Tsunami Groove Crate are parts of our broader planned production pipeline. We'll add dedicated demonstrations and pages when they're ready.
