It has been a while since this blog was last updated (and there has been a quasi-detailed reason for it)!

After completing my graduation film The Great Golden Carrot Caper last year, I have focused most of my creative efforts on marketing the 2D animated short to the international film festival circuit (which has gone quite well for a little-know lagomorph-themed film!) and putting emphasis on my career search (which, so far, has gone… the other way for reasons unspecified!).

In the meantime, I was lucky to have landed in a trainee workshop with a company whose name that I familiarised myself with from my university days by the name of Flycheese Studio over the summer!
This humble creative business, founded in 2012, is known locally for its passionate expertise and instruction in various forms of animation and digital art in its workshops and is one of the few animation companies in South Yorkshire with a stop-motion specialism.

UPDATE (19/10/2025):

This week, I got around to completing the intro animation seen in the GIF above in Adobe Animate and polishing it in Adobe Premiere Pro before uploading it to Flycheese’s YouTube channel during my last ever weekly workshop session with the company this Friday afternoon.

Flycheese’s own annual student showcase went with a bang at The Light Cinema yesterday morning and I managed to show the entertaining animated piece to their founder and managing director Paul who, to my pleasant surprise, found it to be commendable that it had displaced an earlier animation (whose paper cut-out stop-motion style still worked for what it was going for) from over a decade ago as the main intro appearing on the front of the company’s own YouTube page!
