A studio with "Play" at its heart
A design and animation studio in Belfast and we’re serious about play – no, really, we mean it!
Play is the invisible thread that ties everything together, the creative pulse that keeps the universe in motion. Yet, as we grow older, we often forget how integral it is to our everyday lives. Our mission is simple: to inject the spirit of play into every project we touch, making work that not only inspires but also elevates. Whether we’re working on cutting-edge technology or crafting timeless stories, play is always at the heart of what we do.
The studio was born out of a grand ambition – to create a mind-bending virtual reality poem that told the history of the universe. This was our “big bang” moment, sparking a journey of endless creative exploration and the occasional heated debate over what color a void should be! Since then, we haven’t looked back.
Over the years, we’ve expanded our portfolio and capabilities. We’ve brought installations to life, delivered unique branding concepts with passion, and lovingly crafted motion graphics that tell powerful stories. We’ve written, directed, and animated short films that made us cry, laugh, and sometimes both at once. We’ve ventured into the world of interactive soundtrack design, and developed AR and VR applications that will make your imagination grow – or maybe even put a beard on your chest.
Our core skills as a studio
Animation: Our specialty lies in telling captivating stories through stunning 2D motion design and 3D animation. These tools aren’t just eye candy; they help businesses grow, evolve, and stay relevant.
Design: Design thinking drives our entire process. From ideation to content creation, and even down to audio branding, we approach every project with a keen design focus that shapes every detail.
Audio: Music and interactive sound design are integral to our work. We use them to evoke emotional responses and deepen the impact of the experiences we create.
Interactive: We love experimenting with new technologies and applying them in inventive ways. Whether it’s a game, a VR experience, or an installation piece, we blend animation, sound, and design to create immersive, interactive adventures that push boundaries.
In every project, play is the spark that ignites our creativity and fuels our passion. It’s not just what we do – it’s how we approach the world.
