Kilogramme

I was excited to hear that we were going to have a Skype conversation with a member of Killogramme, an animation company based in Manchester. This was a good opportunity to learn from a smaller company what it takes to be in the industry - the problems and benefits they face day-to-day with clients and technology, as well as how to handle massive workloads.

While the Skype connection broke down at one point, we looked on their website as a class and found this animation below. It's humorous and very cartoon-like in the way the lines are animated and drawn, which gives the piece that extra charm.

Their showreel is also very impressive, with a variety of styles and techniques used, it shows a number of skills that clients will be interested in.

After talking to one of my classmates recently I discovered that she visited their studio in the summer to talk to them and get feedback on her work - I have been interested in visiting studios such as Mckinnon and Saunders in Manchester for a while, so knowing that a company like Kilogramme are open to visitors is motivational.
