Well I’m back in the office after from my travels around Europe - which started out as a tour around Switzerland & ended up being a trek around west Europe! (Germany, Switzerland, France, Spain & UK!).

One day back - and things are already busy! With lots of exciting work lined up and the start of my plan to develop an animated children’s TV series!

 I am also working on a few tutorial ideas to put in this blog to help students - so watch this space!

The next Brighton Animators Networking Group meeting has been confirmed - information about it has been put on this blog & also on the BANG Facebook group - http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=3466045493

Animators, students & anyone interested in animation.

What’s happening?

This months guest speak is Anil Mistry. He is coming to share his views! He will be discussing his role as creative director at Jetix, his views on what animators should be doing to get their work seen, his opinion on the animation industry as a whole, how to get out of your comfort zone & learn something new. After the event, Anil has said he’d be happy to receive your showreels & give a personal critique of it.

Who is Anil?

Anil Mistry is the creative director of Jetix, a global kids TV network owned by Disney. Anil has won numerous awards and was the youngest TV channel creative director in the UK (28). This earned him the title “hotshot” from Broadcast magazine. He has also had clothing design work exhibited in the V&A’s Streetstyles exhibition.
