Milo in Space

Milo sees a tiny light blinking on the Moon, and he answers it. A trash-can rocket, a runaway cookie and a shy new friend.

02 / HOW IT’S MADE

Made from code.

There is no animation timeline and no drawing tablet in this pipeline. Milo, his worlds, the animation, the music, the thumbnails and the Shorts are all generated by programs we write and rerun. Change a value, render again, get a new film. The code is written with the help of AI tools; every story, shot and cut is decided by us.

  1. 01CHARACTER

    A rig, not a drawing

    Milo is a hierarchy of shapes with a skeleton: head, eyes, antenna, backpack, a golden star. Poses and expressions are numbers, so he stays on model in every frame.

  2. 02SETS

    Worlds written as scenes

    The Moon, the storm, the sea floor: each set is a scene description, lit and layered by the same renderer.

  3. 03ANIMATION

    Keyframes at 24 fps

    Every move is authored as timing and easing, then rendered frame by frame into a 1440p master.

  4. 04SCORE

    An original orchestral score

    Music carries the story, so it is composed for each episode instead of picked from a library.

  5. 05EVERYTHING ELSE

    Thumbnails and Shorts too

    Thumbnails and the weekly Shorts come out of the same code, so the look never drifts between formats.

03 / WHY WORDLESS

No words.
Nothing to translate.

A face, a gesture and a piece of music say the same thing in every country. Milo has no dialogue to dub and no captions to read, so a viewer in Istanbul, Osaka or Lima gets the same story at the same moment.

It is made for a general audience: anyone who likes a small, warm adventure and a good score.
