Review of 2018
2018 has been a great year. We've produced a number of 2D and 3D commercials, worked with typographer Martina Flor to animate the seasons, combined animation and live action with Petface, added character to the TfGM tram safety campaign, completed another series of The Dumping Ground, created and animated our Amy for the Wordhunters game, brought Cosatto pram patterns to life, worked with an amazing group of inspirational children to produce Our Story, animated Penfold live and animated a well loved Manchester character called Noel for Christmas. Here are some of the highlights:
