The Weird One

This is a character design and concept art project I made for an original 2D animated narrative short film idea, that follows a Pakistani fairy named “The Weird One” who takes up the role of being a fairy godmother for queer children who are struggling. At the sound of a queer child’s tears, the Weird One magically appears, to act as a beacon of hope and guides them through their journey of self-discovery.
