As the face of new (and existing) business, I get to meet some exceptionally talented people, of whom we are grateful to work with. I pitch for work, I advocate the way we work and I help our studio to keep developing - though I think our whole team does that too. If you see something of ours online, I probably put it there.
Sales, marketing, development. I guess I'd say those three words sum up what I do.
We're an independent animation studio. We collaborate and form partnerships. Our clients actually seem to like us, which is nice. We're honest about what we can and can't achieve and we're a friendly bunch of folk who, at the end of the day want to create impacting work, on time, to budget and with a bit of that Yorkshire charm thrown in.
What do we make? Award winning animation, charming characters and visuals. We work with some brilliant agencies and clients along the way in Advertising, Healthcare and Children's Media from across the globe.
Google us, talk to us, find out what we're all about.
The things that set us apart? Our team. Real, honest people who have a passion for creating. We get in, we get on and the work gets done. We all add something and everyone is valued for their part.
Our process too! We're sticklers for a good production process.
When volunteering back in 2012, I was appointed as Marketing Manager on a voluntary basis and in my time re-designed and implemented the membership scheme, managed social media activity, supported the Sheffield International Book Prize through marketing activity, sponsorship and advertising generation and through social media activity, amongst other things.
