What if the smallest creature in the room was the one thing the darkness feared?
Kalu Gultu is a tiny black bombay kitten with a secret power: he can sense what others cannot.
Raised by Saad, a guardian carrying secrets of his own, Kalu Gultu encounters a mysterious female supernatural entity maybe a jinni—and discovers that his shadow may hide a terrifying power.
But the encounter leaves behind something far more important: a clue to Kalu Gultu's past.
His mother's symbol.
A mysterious voice.
One unanswered question.
“Mom?”

Drafting a short pitch for a pilot competition entry.
"The Silent Shore"
When a passenger ship is swallowed by a storm no one survives, the handful who wake up on the other side find themselves somewhere the ocean was never meant to lead. Ezra Voss came looking for his missing father; instead he finds a world of glowing forests, floating stone, and silent watchers who lead the survivors not to safety, but to a temple — where something far larger than any of them has been chained for reasons no one will explain.
The pilot ends the moment the chained figure speaks his first words: "Where do you come from?", a question that reframes everything the audience just watched. Is this new world a refuge, a prison, or something else entirely? Who built the temple, and who put the chains there and why does the figure ask the newcomers where they're from, as if the answer matters more than it should?
What drives the series forward:
Central mystery: what this world is, why it exists on the other side of a storm, and what the chained figure actually is.
Goal: Ezra's search for his father collides with a much bigger question — whether his father ever made it here first.
Conflict: survivors divided between trying to get home and staying to uncover what they've found.
Cliffhanger: the chained figure's question is left unanswered, setting up the next episode as his interrogation of — or alliance with — the newcomers.
It looks amazing, really good work, I appreciate 💝
UNLIT
In a forest where every living thing glows, the only girl born without a light survives by stealing it.
THE WORLD
Vesperwood is an ancient forest in endless night, where the moss, the mushrooms, even the rain glow. Here, your light is your life, and it holds your memories. Anything without a light is called a Hollow, and Hollows are taken to the White Tree. None come back.
THE CHARACTER
Moth is a sharp-tongued, charming thief and the only unlit creature in Vesperwood. She fakes a glow with mushroom dust smeared across her cheeks, she's terrified of rain, and she remembers nothing of her life before. Her only family is Wick, a palm-sized creature with twelve glowing lights down his spine. He can't speak, and he's a terrible liar: his lights flicker every time he tries.
THE PILOT: "Borrowed Light"
Moth and Wick are playing hide-and-seek in a glowing grove when the lights around them start going dark. Vigil the Lamplighter, who hunts the unlit, has come deeper into the forest than ever before, and he knows Moth's name. The rain washes off her fake glow, and she runs. Then something impossible happens: the forest fights for her. Mushrooms, roots and fireflies turn against Vigil, and Wick risks everything to save her. At the edge of the Mirror Pond, Vigil stops and leaves her with a line she can't unhear: "Ask him where it went." When Moth turns to Wick, his lights flicker. And one of them has gone out.
WHERE THE SERIES GOES
Long ago, Moth gave her entire light to save a dying newborn Wick, and it cost her every memory she had. She doesn't know this. Wick does, and he's secretly giving her light back, one light at a time. Each light returns a memory to her and takes one from him, including his memories of her. She's remembering who she is while he forgets who she is.
Wick only loses a light when he chooses to protect her, so every danger becomes something the audience dreads. Ahead:
Old Ashling, a blind toad who knew Moth before.
The truth that Vigil is unlit too, surviving on the caged lights he carries, and the offer he makes Moth: a light of her own that was stolen from someone else.
The secret of what the White Tree really does with the Hollows.
Twelve lights, one season, one question: there's only enough light for one of them. Who keeps it?
WHY I BUILT IT
I wanted a world that is beautiful and dangerous at the same time, with a relationship at its center where love has a real, visible cost: one the audience can literally count down on the back of a tiny creature.
this is beautiful!
Strange Rules
Strange Rules is a cute fantasy mystery series set in a beautiful enchanted world where life appears peaceful and ordinary, but everyone quietly lives by strange rules that they never question.
The world is filled with charming forests, small villages, magical creatures, cozy homes, and peaceful everyday routines. The atmosphere is warm and beautiful, but there is always a subtle feeling that something is not quite right. The strange rules are simply part of life. People follow them because they know that breaking them can lead to things they don't understand.
Mori's Story
Mori is a tiny young forest deer who lives alone in a beautiful wooden cabin deep inside the enchanted forest. He is gentle, curious, and happily lives a simple routine of cooking breakfast, caring for his garden, reading beside the fireplace, and keeping his home tidy.
Mori was raised by his teacher and guardian, Nick, who taught him everything he knows. Before Nick mysteriously left the cabin one day, he gave Mori one important promise:
“I will be back. And always follow the rules.”
Mori has waited patiently ever since.
He doesn't know where Nick went, why Nick had to leave, or why the rules are so important. But Mori trusts him, so he continues living peacefully and following the rules every day.
Until one night, exactly at midnight, someone knocks on his front door.
The world of Strange Rules isn't dark all the time. It can be warm, funny, adorable, and comforting. Forest creatures cook meals, tend gardens, go to work, visit neighbors, and live ordinary lives.
But everyone seems to know certain rules.
Some rules may sound harmless:
Never whistle after sunset.
Never answer when someone calls your name from the forest.
Never open your door after midnight.
Nobody explains where these rules came from.
Nobody wants to find out what happens when they are broken.
And sometimes, the strangest things happen when someone gets too curious.
Each episode can follow a different character, place, or strange rule while slowly revealing that all of these peaceful lives may be connected to something much bigger.
Those visuals look adorable!
