Welcome to
The Magic world of
Crayons
Concept of the series
As children creativity is boundless and as
children’s drawings are not perfect, the
characters of CRAYONS are unique and just
authentic misfits. None of the Crayons
characters are perfect, but being
imperfect is fun.
AUPA
KOMA KOKE
100 % Optimistic
100 % Naive
Good Buddy.
Dreamer
Irresponsible
Emotional and sensitive
Grumpy
Negative and nervous.
He demands love and
admiration
He doesn’t know how to
demonstrate his good feelings.
He loves his hair, he is a vain
guy
Selfish
Capricious and a bit
manipulative.
Creative and romantic.
SUPER BIN
G
Lazy
Gluttonous, he doesn't really
care about the quality of what
he eats.
When it comes to food, he takes
things very seriously.
A little crazy (not very smart,
often too slow to understand
things).
He is a follower and a bit
indifferent to everything.
Koke is a curious girl. She has ideas and a strong will to pursue
adventures. She is the brain and Aupa the arms, always ready to
carry out the missions without thinking. Bing follows them like a
sticky little girl. It is the disturbing element that destabilizes the
group with its caprices. Koke needs to take a protective role with
her. Bing can easily persuade Aupa to do whatever she wants.
NARRATIVE PRINCIPLES
HERE ARE THE RULES THAT DEFINE HOW
THE WORLD OF CRAYONS WORKS
THE MAGIC, THE 2D WORLD, THE 3D WORLD,
AND THE MOTIVATIONS OF OUR CHARACTERS.
Stella loves her drawings. They are her favourite characters
and became her imaginary friends. They live so intensely in
her imagination that they ended up materializing in the real
world. This obviously does not happen with all the drawings
created by Stella or other children every day, only with
those that have been made with a special combination of
love and passion
In the 2D world they are flat and cannot move, but they
are not prisoners. There they feel comfortable and happy,
spending their time watching and often admiring what Stella
does. They watch her and learn a lot from her. Every moment
she spends drawing in front of her desk, playing in her room
or sleeping in her bed represent moments of happiness for
Crayons. Her mood is very important to them: if she is happy,
they are happy; if she is sad, they will do their best to make
her smile. They are, in a way, her silent confidants, the
sponges of her emotions.
In the 3D world they have the opportunity to live Sometimes their jump into our world is directly motivated by Stella.
Finding an object that is loved by her and that she has lost, trying
incredible adventures. As soon as they jump out of their to fix something that she absolutely needs, even visiting her at night

Crayons may encounter obstacles, for example an object or
piece of furniture may have been placed against one of the
drawings, blocking the comings and goings and forcing the
occupant to pull a trick to get in or out. A real challenge!
STELLA
THE FAMILY
Apart from Stella, we will see her father and mother, but
never their faces as the camera will remain at the girl's height. Our
goal is to create a strong bond between Stella, her drawings and the
magical force that flows between them. Adults are not part of this
dynamic, so we will see them only in the background.

always be hanging to the ground. Aupa is hyperactive, always
jumping around, getting excited, moving his big arms around
without worrying if he might break something around him or not.
Odo is grumpy, his walk as rigid as his control of his emotions, and
his gravity centre are his eyes. It is through his impossible hairstyle
that he expresses his emotions. Koke moves gracefully. She tries to
make her huge glasses hold on her nose but they have a constant
tendency to fall.
