Spyral Atelier | LOCUS (Indie Animation)

Creating stuff… with a unique spin. 🌀

A self-taught, solo creator capable of animation, artwork, design, music, writing and editing.

I’m currently developing LOCUS: a sci-fi story that follows the life of a bubble algae in a city governed by show business, social media, commerce and technology. My series will pride itself on having an “adorably badass” aesthetic with a blend of action and drama.
I am currently developing a pilot film in this series known as "LOCUS: No Matter How Small", which I project will be complete as early as December this year (or January the next), once I get all shipping / reward-related obligations and voiceover direction complete.

God bless, and take care of yourselves out there. 💙

Finally finished the 3D background elements! Now the real fun begins. 🌤️

Before jumping into frames, I conduct visual research to ensure the 2D layers blend with the BG.
Here’s a screenshot demonstrating this. Rendering is subject to change. 🤫

Vacation and sickness aside, progress has been going steady on the film’s development! I’m about halfway through building all the 3D environments.

Here’s a preview of a few interior set pieces, to give you an idea of what to expect. 👾

I FINALLY finished all the essential storyboards for my film. 🥴

Next is to build the 3D environments (which I prepped for with sketchmaps).

Those who wish to see the boards in detail can do so via my Ko-Fi. 🙏✨

Quick heads-up for those who’re still thinking of pledging to my Patreon!

I'm contemplating a switch to Ko-fi instead, as some of its features are more aligned with my preferred earning approach (instead of relying primarily on subscriptions).

It also looks cuter. 😁
