Bio

Generated by
Topline AI
I'm Nick Harrop, an experienced animation director based in the UK, specializing in traditional and character animation. With a BA in Graphic Information Design from Falmouth School of Art and Design, I have spent over 9 years teaching animation principles to undergraduates at Falmouth University. My professional journey includes significant roles at 3 Doubles Producciones, where I've directed a confidential CGI children's TV series and guided animation on various international projects. I've also contributed as an episodic director and storyboard artist for the globally recognized children's show "Chuggington." Fluent in English, I possess a diverse skill set that includes animation direction, celaction, and redboard storyboarding, allowing me to bring creative visions to life across multiple platforms.
