Animation Podcasts | Skwigly show

Summary: Skwigly.com presents Animation One-To-Ones featuring Laura-Beth Cowley in conversation with award-winning London-based director Elliot Dear. Elliot Dear is an almost indecently talented animator, illustrator and director. His dazzling mixed media films are consistently groundbreaking, emotive and atmospheric. Elliot’s work displays a range and skillset rarely seen. Incorporating live action, stop motion and both hand drawn and 3D animation, his films feel like a throwback to the golden age of animation, whilst managing to be utterly contemporary and cutting edge. Elliot's notable mixed-media works include the John Lewis campaign 'The Bear & The Hare' and the BBC spot 'The Supporting Act'. Having built a superb body of work as a director at BLINKINK, Elliot's latest project is another Xmas-themed animation 'All Through the House', a season two episode of the Netflix anthology series 'Love, Death + Robots'.
