Aardman has created six new films for the BBC’s ‘Things We Love’ campaign, which provide an entertaining insight to the UK’s most loved BBC content. In the series of heart-warming animated films real, BBC audience member’s voices and unscripted conversations are matched with charming stop-motion clay characters, directed by Rich Webber.

Peter Lord and David Sproxton began their animating partnership at school. In 1972 they registered the name Aardman Animations. After graduating, they moved to Bristol in 1976 where they produced their first professional production, creating Morph for the children’s programme ‚Take Hart‘. From Peter Lord and David Sproxton’s tabletop beginnings, Aardman has grown into a major world-class studio with a hugely talented and passionate team working behind the scenes. Aardman became Employee Owned in 2018, securing our ethos, creative values and independence for the future. Guided by the principle of keeping the company in the hands of those who helped build it, our partners work closely with the Exec Board to ensure Aardman provides a positive and thriving environment for everyone who works here to flourish. The Aardman Academy delivers world-class courses for both established professionals and people at the start of their careers in animation. We offer both short and longer courses that provide practical, expert-led learning in a supportive and nurturing environment to help you take your career in animation to the next level. #Aardman #AardmanAnimations #BBC #CreatureComforts
