The Age of Blog

August 27th, 2008

Hoorah! Our new site is live… and its full of blogability. 

Please browse our WORK pages for a hand-picked selection of projects we have undertaken (and a little case-specific production info) or just pop back every now and again to see our latest offerings. It’ll probably be a bit sporadic, not an everyday journal of how many pigeons have walked along the window ledge… we’ve already posted a few bits to get things started, so please do browse away. 

We’d also like to announce that “The Grotlyn” is finally available online via new Channel 4 animation site, www.4mations.tv . Go watch it and rank up the play count!
