IT'S JUST BUSINESS PT.2

SO FOR THE SECOND INSTALLMENT OF MY BUSINESS RESEARCH I DECIDED TO GO A LITTLE CLOSER TO HOME, IN THIS CASE, 'CLOTH CAT ANIMATION'

CLOTH CAT ANIMATION IS A NEW ANIMATION COMPANY, BASED IN CARDIFF, THAT SPECIFICALLY FOCUS ON THE CREATION OF 2D ANIMATED TV SHOWS THAT INCORPORATE STRONG TECHNICAL GROUNDING AND INNOVATIVE NEW TECHNIQUES FOR AUDIENCES OF ALL KINDS

Cloth Cat are a company to put into real consideration. Not only are they one of the largest creative production companies in Wales, but they are also one of the youngest, with branches that are only growing further with each passing year. With a creative team of many different types, from 2D animation to character rigging to motion graphics, this is truly a company that could really give an up and coming new talent a great place to flourish. They primarily focus on the use of the animation software ‘CelAction’, which they use for most if not all of their current 2D projects, and there has also been talk of late to the incorporation of the new software ‘TVPaint’ into their repertoire. They would provide a good understanding to any young animator trying to learn about the industry and this is why they have been considered in my research as one of the five companies I am interested in.
