The Case

Western cartoon animation style, bold black outlines, flat bright colors, simplified playful shapes, exaggerated. Present day. A moody cartoon alley at night, brick walls, a single street lamp, a spilled trash can. Night. A person in a trench coat and detective hat peers through a big magnifying glass, one eye hugely enlarged, sneaking forward. Footprint clues, a glowing lamp, a curious cat. Cool night flat lighting with a warm lamp pool. Slow dolly in. Sleuthy cartoon aesthetic, 24fps.
