The Disappearing Act is an upcoming NSFW 18+ animated short film featuring NeonWabbit characters Sunny and Voltereier. Voice work was commissioned by Studio RGB-Newt's Team Lewd the Newt, and it was directed, written, drawn, animated, edited, composited, sound designed, score composed, and produced by NeonWabbit, who also did the cinematography and special effects work to integrate the hand-drawn 2D animation into the 3D Unreal Engine-powered environments (sourced from artists on the UE Marketplace, which is now known as Fab).
It is tentatively set to star Nami955 as Sunny (and Janice, a squirrel janitor), plus Shay-Ki AD as Voltereier.
The project's production code is NW-M24LTN01, and its working title is Project Kitty Bnuuy [sic].

Production
Early development
Casting
Nami955 and Shay-Ki AD, who Toxis originally cast as Aurora Australis and Gerald Symons on his commissioned The Aussie Goldmine-related NSFW 18+ animation, Refill, were picked for this project due to their great previous work on the aforementioned short, and because NeonWabbit promised to commission them at some point during August 2024.
Writing
Because of the promise NeonWabbit made to commission Nami955 and Shay-Ki by the end of August 2024, the script was written very last minute within that month and completed within a single night, being delivered on the first day of September.
Due to the rush job, the final draft of the screenplay contains a few mistakes, such as erroneously having a line where it says that Voltereier interacts with Zaps, instead of with Sunny, as it should. Zaps is Voltereier's nickname.
