Meet Curio — a tiny explorer with an endless curiosity about the world around him.
In this pilot, a mysterious case of the hiccups turns an ordinary snack into Curio’s first investigation. What starts as a funny surprise becomes a simple discovery about how his body works.
But for Curio, every answer creates another question. Just as one mystery is solved, something new catches his attention — opening the door to his next adventure.
Curio is an educational micro-series built around one simple idea: big questions for little minds. Each episode turns an everyday “why?” into a playful visual adventure, exploring the human body, animals, nature, space, science and the world around us.
One question. One discovery. And always another reason to wonder. ✨
this is too cute!
Made a chaotic little comedy clip starring Leo (a golden retriever who thinks he's the main character) and Bean (an actual lion who's scared of literally everything) living together and losing their minds over a bag of chips. Leo declares it a "threat," things escalate way too fast, chips go everywhere, a plant dies, Bean almost falls off a shelf — and somehow it ends wholesome. Built around big personality flips (the dog acts fearless, the lion is a scaredy-cat), physical chaos, and a random cozy ending nobody asked for but everyone needed.
cute!! are these all your characters?
Series Title: Zeno: Becoming Human Pilot / Episode Title: First Date I created a short comedy pilot centered on Zeno, an alien trying to pass as a normal human while learning human behavior through observation, bad assumptions, and literal interpretations.
The pilot follows his first date with Belinda, where his attempts to act normal slowly become more suspicious and absurd. I chose this concept because it creates a simple recurring comedy engine. Every episode can place Zeno in a different everyday human situation such as dating, work, friendships, parties, travel, or family life, where he confidently misunderstands the rules.
I wanted the character to feel strange but likable, with the humor coming from his complete confidence that he is blending in successfully, even when everyone around him can clearly tell something is wrong.
The voice work and idea execution is amazing. Great submission!
