Delighted to be working with Philip Reeve!
Animated Exeter has commissioned fantastic children's author Philip Reeve to write a short story for us, to celebrate our collaboration with the Exetreme Imagination Festival. The story is almost ready, and we want schools to be among the first to read it and respond with a short animation about any aspect of the story. See more about this new competition for schools on our Education pages.
Young+Animated Saturday Club
In association with Exeter Phoenix we run a Saturday Club suitable for young people both experienced in animation and those just starting out. The Young+Animated Saturday club is a great way to develop and experiment with your artistic flair.
