I am interested in meeting other british animators, it seems that there are few of us about. Perhaps we could get a small group together to work on some projects? Anyone interested?
The Hive (London) and Optical Image (Stourbridge), I also did some work experience at AstleyBakerDavies (when it was just AstleyBaker), Tom and Vicki, and 2d:3d.
And yes... there are pubs in Soho crawling with animators!
You can find a lot of British animators on Skwigly Animation Magazine's forum. The on-line magazine is at http://www.skwigly.co.uk. There is a link to the forum on there.
Cheers!

Wow, Kevan, that's amazing! Congrats! :) Have you worked for other huge companies? I'd really love to do something like that - it's my main ambition in life.
i studied computer animation at bournemouth university. there are actually a few of us here, although i'm the only one in the character animation group.
this is my first animation job since leaving school, although i did work in london as a matchmover in a cool little visual effects company for about 8 months in between.
Gee,
Maybe this is obvious...how about in England?
Thanks.

Hey there Guys, I'm british/kurdish- living in sunny London, :-D
I'm not British, but I did study and work in the UK for 9 years... Have you tried looking in Soho? Some of the pubs are crawling with animators!
