Kilogramme Animation Studio

For one of our study tasks, we had to find an animation studio that we wanted to potentially work for, either when we leave university, or to get some work experience from. My studio of choice was Kilogramme Animation Studio. I saw the Director of this studio do a talk at Manchester Animation Festival and I loved the look of the studio, it looked like a really good environment to work in and I loved the look of the work they produce, because it was all very broad.

Part of the reason I was so interested in this studio was the fact that they are very passionate about character design, and a lot of their animations are very character based. They produce animations for a huge range of purposes, weather it be a TV add, full animated episodes, website banners  or animated shorts. 

In my presentation I talked about how my interest lie a lot in the area of pre-production, as well as production itself. The fact that this is a studio that thrives off lots of design and concept based work is very reassuring for me. As a way of making contact I have emailed the studio, explaining who I am and where I study, and asking if they would be able to give me some information of their internship programme if they have one, and if so, what they look for in their interns or potential employees. 

I have yet to get a reply, however I have also connected with the studio and one of their main character designers on twitter, so I plan to make contact with her personally, as well as possibly ringing the studio.
