Little Cherub
About this piece
A cherub for a holiday short: three apples tall, two feathered wings and a fully clothed blue tunic, with a smile that ends arguments. Built to read in wide shots and steal scenes in close-ups.
Baby appeal is mathematics — huge brow, tiny chin, cheeks that break the silhouette. Both wings are fully feathered in layered cards above the blue tunic, so the silhouette stays balanced from every side.
Process
- Push baby proportions past comfort, then check against the design sheet.
- Feather both wings in layered cards: base, mid, hero tips.
- Approve the smile at 24 frames per second, not just in stills.
