"KAHIBO" is a diploma project created at the Animation Institute of the Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg. To showcase the series project a trailer and two short clips were animated during the studies using TV Paint, Clip Studio Paint, and Adobe After Effects.

Synopsis

The world as we know it has exploded centuries ago into a vast number of ‘crumbles’.

Kahibo lives on such an isolated crumble: The cruel society of Barbarion. After being orphaned, he denies his true self and suppresses his emotions in order to blend in. But when Chimpo, a white-furred, talking monkey, crashes into his room, his whole world is turned upside down because Kahibo unknowingly activates a spell that binds them together forever.

Will Kahibo find a way back to his emotions and re-discover his true self on this journey through the culinary arts of the Crumbleverse? This series combines laughter, action and tons of heart with food, friendship and tackling social norms to form it all into one big recipe for disaster.
