Welcome to London Animation Club

Philosophy:

“I think it’s very essential that artists meet other artists… and we can have a good moan together.”

– Bob Godfrey, 2006

London Animation Club used to be a monthly soiree for animators and people interested in animation but is now generally an online broadcast through YouTube, but still features live interviews with invited guests who screen their work. To keep the social side also going, we have introduced occasional Zoom parties.

London Animation Club was founded and is curated by London-based animator Martin Pickles.
