Not separate ventures. Different expressions of the same studio.
A children's story can become a screenplay, sing-along book, lullaby, video, classroom activity, or family tool. The same observational method can also become an SOP, workshop, decision brief, scenario, or business framework. The audience and deliverable change; the underlying work—find the human pattern, shape it clearly, and make it useful—stays connected.

Most people repeat patterns they never learned to see.
Slight Angle Studios makes those patterns visible — through stories you feel, tools you can use, and research-grounded frameworks — so people, families, classrooms, and organizations can aim a few degrees better.
Same pattern, same destination. The loop keeps its shape.
Who are you, and what do you need?
Pilot partners wanted. We're actively looking for a small number of pilot sites — veteran-serving organizations, recovery programs, schools, and nonprofits. See pilot packages →
One engine. Many ways in.
Patternomics™
The proprietary, research-grounded framework and the engine that turns it into every product the studio makes.
Explore the platform →The Bob Universe™
Books, characters, kids' worlds, memoir, and screen-ready IP — the engine, made into something you feel.
Enter →Patternomics is the engine underneath everything. The Bob Universe, the kids' line, the curriculum, and the veteran & recovery programs are all expressions of it.
Bob & the Blobs™
Nobody is a Blob. Everybody has Blobs. The patterns behind big feelings, made into friends. The Blobs turn the protective patterns feelings set off into characters kids can understand, name, and work with.
One idea, told a hundred ways.
Stories with somewhere to go.
Books aren't endpoints. Every property is developed as adaptable IP with paths to screen, classroom, products, and licensing — and the studio creates its own visual media in-house: pitch decks, sizzle reels, animated POV shorts, motion graphics, and social video.
The work began with lived experience.
Survival, service, recovery, and the long process of learning that the pattern is not the person. Slight Angle exists because these patterns had to be survived before they could be seen — and once you can see them, you can aim a few degrees better.
