Puck

Based-on-a-book series with humour and wit about Puck’s adventures in everyday life. Puck & side kick Bunny try things for the first time; going to the cinema, restaurant, and the dentist.

Based on the popular Swedish illustrated children’s books with same name, Puck is an animated series of 7 min episodes with humour and wit about Puck’s adventures in everyday life. We follow preschool favourite Puck and their pink soft animal and side-kick, Bunny, trying things for the first time. Each episode conveys a wonderful feeling of trying out and completing something for the first time; going to the cinema, eating at a restaurant, and visiting the dentist. Puck also gets a new bicycle and visits the hairdresser. With the company of Bunny and the support of their bohemian-single parent Mom, Puck dares to encounter all things new. 

Set in a contemporary Swedish urban city, Puck is a colourful and gentle series for the preschool audience. The series deals with gender topics and modern single-parent life wrapped in relatable stories of a four-year old’s daily life. 

Directors statement

In 2014, I sat by a cold ice rink with the sketch pad in my hands while the eldest son skated. My drawings became a child, with quite long hair... Right then and there, Puck was born! A character that brings us along on everyday adventures. Yes, because an adventure doesn't always have to be downhill racing of a ravine or wrestling with a crocodile in the Amazon. Well, it can be just as exhilarating to wobble away on a little bicycle. At least if you're Puck’s age. Then much in everyday life is still exciting and new. 

My intention is to always create stories for children, and not just about children. I want to respectfully reflect a small child's everyday life, thoughts, and feelings. Then intersperse the ordinary events with the informative parts, but at the same time leave room for the imagination. 

I want the audiences to feel at home when they watch Puck. Environments will be unpolished and look like they do in real life, and the characters will reflect a diversity. Puck should feel like a completely ordinary child, in a completely ordinary world. Without being boring because of it. The focus will be on the storytelling and less on flashy effects. I want to dare to slow down the pace, and be restrained with dialogue. Everything to make the children's recognition greater, so that they can follow along and comprehend.

I want the result to feel timeless, warm, and humorous. And - there must be band-aids!
