Children's ITV runs a competition every year for the kids to write and draw their own story. From several thousand entries, the winners get their story turned into a professionally made minute-long animation. This year the 4 winning animations were made by some fantastic animation studios, in CG, 2D, and stop motion - and one was made by me and a brilliant illustrator and character designer called Carl Hadley ( if you're clicking that's http://carlhadley.com ).
Carl drew the map and the character designs (based off the ridiculously talented 12 year old Ursula's original designs) and all the CG was created by yours truly in just under 4 weeks - so you might notice a couple of mildly cropped corners here and there, but overall I'm pretty proud of what we achieved... ;)
All of the animations are being shown this week on CITV, but you can check them out now on the ITV hub at:

You will probably have to sit through about a minute's worth of adverts first, I'm afraid, but I promise the animations are worth it!
