Congratulations to Escapee Kevin Richards who has just started a new job as an animator with Cloth Cat animation in Cardiff.  Kevin is a traditional animator who took the three-month intensive animation course at Escape Studios last summer, which included access to the Animation Apprentice videos and other course materials. Kevin converted his 2D skills to digital 3D animation in Maya.  working hard on his demo reel, and getting regular feedback to make his reel, website and CV job-ready.

Cloth Cat is a Cardiff-based studio which describes itself as "the largest animation production company in Wales".

Cloth Cat are probably best known for their work on the superb Ethel & Ernest, the 2016 theatrical release based on the autobiographical book by comics giant Raymond Briggs, but they are also moving into 3D animated TV series as well as traditional 2D work.
