It was nice to see loads of new inspirational faces, including a sensitive greyhound and a giant thumb that smushed my face. We also had pots of Play-Doh dotted around for people to smush to their will.


Sam Gainsborough came to talk through his incredible work. Sam is a mixed media director, repped by Blink Ink. His final NFTS film ‘Facing It’ won international awards, including Vimeo’s Best Of The Year. Sam recently guest directed on Channel 4’s ‘Don’t Hug Me I’m Scared’. Bringing his instantly recognisable claymation style to the series. “Urgh, claymation”

It feels great to be on a run of getting bigger with people coming from ever further to take part. It seemed like you all had fun, even if I couldn’t hear or see most of it from inside my easel.


We had FOUR headline guests filming a live She Drew That podcast. Katie Menzies (1/2 of Cabeza Patata), Eva Münnich, Angie Phillips (Arc Studio) and Hannah Lau-Walker talked about their work, experiences, and SDT’s 3 main focuses: Support, Development and Promotion of women in animation.


Starting as a monthly meet up, She Drew That runs initiatives that support, develop and promote women in animation. Workshops, interviews, mentoring, residencies & animation challenges. All designed to demystify the industry, build skills, and access jobs. Find out more at: shedrewthat.com


Thanks to Bigtooth Studios for filming and Robbie King for being on the buttons.

This was our biggest yet and had a heap of chaotic energy from the early days. Part of the charm… for some. This was also the first time we had a majority of female animators showing work. Hopefully a start to getting the balance right.


As prizes, we had rearrangeable action figures courtesy of Ollie Jones, and some Cyriak designed slide puzzles.


Cyriak Harris was our main guest… eventually. We churned through his incredible career, from his first hits on YouTube, music video commissions and recent projects. It was a particular treat to see the animations on a big screen, getting baffled by the magic tricks that he performs with After Effects.
