Production time

My animation studio is based in the East Midlands of England but we work with clients all over the UK and the world. I’ve worked remotely with clients in London, Europe, New York, Florida, California, Canada and Singapore.

My animation production process is tried and tested to work whether our client is local to our studio in Derby, half a day away in London or overseas.

I maintain regular communication throughout a project and schedule meetings over the phone, Skype and Google hangouts – whatever best suits our client. We’re also happy for clients to visit us in our studio or for us to travel to their offices.

Have a look through my client testimonials to see what they say about working with our studio.
