19-year-old Pauline accidentally becomes pregnant from a one-night stand with Lukas, who, as it turns out, is the son of the devil. The pregnancy gives Pauline supernatural powers and an epic battle between good and evil ensues.

Pauline a Disney+ Mini Series

We were honored to be invited by bildundtonfabrik to design and animate a 2 minute long 2D sequence for the Disney+ series Pauline.

The challenge was to create a style inspired by early Mickey Mouse shorts, refining a rough storyboard, and bringing it to life through animation — all within an intense 7-week timeline.

To meet the deadline, we assembled an incredible team of freelancers, working together to craft a dynamic and visually striking sequence.

With a tight timeline, we had to refine the style quickly and efficiently. These three images showcase the breakthrough moments in the design process.

The key ingredients:

• Clean lines, softened with subtle blur
• Dust and noise filters for a vintage touch
• Painterly backgrounds mimicking acrylic textures
• A classic 4:3 aspect ratio for an authentic retro feel
