The Wizard
A potion-maker’s patience is tested by curious fairies in this original short film from Slapbox Studio.
Character before animation.
The second episode of Uncle Zee’s Sideways Storybook follows a wizard whose quiet work is interrupted by curious fairies.
The team built a world bible for the forest and workshop, alongside character sheets for the wizard and fairies. These established the visual references used throughout production.
Keeping the world consistent.
A short film still asks the audience to believe in its characters and setting. Shared references help carry faces, clothing, environments, and tone from one shot to the next.
Let’s talk about your project.
