Oculus Festum

Oculus Festum is an independent, creator-led creative media studio and intellectual property holder based in Austria. It develops original fictional worlds through story, image, and motion, while also producing selected work for clients and creative partners. Its original projects include Ant Idol, a dark fantasy about freedom and identity; Kobold Snorbelin Comics, a comic-strip offshoot of that universe; literary work from Fractal Press; and the short-form moving-image project Sniper Girls.

The studio’s services span illustration and visual development, character and concept art, comics and manga, writing and story development, film and video, worldbuilding, IP development, and creative direction. It also accepts custom art commissions and creates visual materials for events, merchandise, and promotional campaigns. Past collaborations include event and booth design, animated release teasers, and an explainer video for Stereum.

Oculus Festum takes a story-first approach, aligning character, atmosphere, structure, and visual identity. Its work is designed to support cohesive worlds and ideas that can develop across different formats over time.
