# Wallo & Pippa

Concept: an affectionate decorating double act in a warm, theatrical room, with an orderly wallpaper pattern colliding with irrepressible paint.

Original code-native 2D character rigs, rounded silhouettes, navy outlines, tactile highlights and shadows. Wallo has a round nose, a dark moustache, teal overalls, cream shirt, mustard cap and brown boots. Pippa has a curly auburn bun, freckles, coral sleeves, cream overalls and blue shoes. Shared proportions and unchanging costume geometry across episodes. Expressions change through eyelids, brows and mouths.

Palette: background #f4eadb, ink #243b42, teal #267e7c, coral #e97556, mustard #e9b64b, paper #fff7e8. Warm wall with molding; patterned hanging paper, paint bucket, step ladder and shadowed floor establish the worksite.

Type: Archivo Black for episode titles, Space Mono for episode labels, both embedded locally. Focal elements: the two large characters and the moving prop. Header anchors: WALLO & PIPPA and episode title. Bottom anchor: a short punchline timed to the payoff. Avoid UI boxes inside the films.

Motion recipes: finite paused GSAP timeline; continuous deterministic character drawing driven by timeline time; anticipation, follow-through and squash at prop impacts. Particle-burst recipe supplies time-derived paint droplets; spring-pop entrance supplies playful punchline arrival. No generated still-image panning.
