2023 | Circus Callisto

Cover by Angelique

“Max, a young orphan boy, is recruited by an eccentric Ringmaster, Lila to save her failing circus.”

Produced and completed in 2023, “Circus Callisto” centres around a Max - a young orphan boy - being ‘adopted’ by Lila - the ringleader of a failing circus - and her misfit circus workers

With a focus on found family and growth, this comedic and dramatic proposed television series centres around the developing partnership between Max and Lila as the latter grows closer with the circus members throughout the show’s runtime.

Although not animated, “Circus Callisto” is a project still worth documenting as it helped make our team think deeper about world-building, and developing effective arcs and believable relationships between characters.

I was primarily responsible for rendering illustrations, but also had a hand in developing the environments, character designs, and some aspects of production (like colours and lineart).

Renders

Here is a small collation of illustrations I helped render. Due to the possibility of the team potentially making this a legitimate series one day, I will refrain from showing every render (and any subsequent concept art that helped shape the final product).
