Pip carries a glowing jar of stars through a dark forest

The story

Pip is a little red panda who is afraid of the dark. He mends fallen stars and keeps them in a jar as a nightlight, until restoring the sky means giving away his only light. Left with an empty jar, he sings four notes. The sky answers.

The 107-second wordless storybook short begins with Shawn’s original Pip artwork. Illustrated stills become moving shots, and a score, designed sound and constellation motion graphics tell the story.
