Final Film

The Team

Animancers Studio welcomes you to our blog. As we are a brand new animation studio, we would like to introduce ourselves.

Alfie Gunter


I am a student at the university for the creative arts rochester, studying Computer animation arts. I knew I wanted to do something in the creative industry but for a very long time had no clue what. Eventually after some consideration I decided animation was the route I wanted to take.

I was born and raised in North London and came from a background of creative parents. This helped me become the person I am through their encouragement and support.

I'm an indoors person so I don't have too many hobbies, if I'm inside I tend to play games. However, I enjoy wandering around London for hours.

Juanjo Estany


Juanjo Estany is a student of Computer Animation Arts at the University for the Creative Arts in Rochester.

Born in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain, he always felt drawn to graphic design and animation but never thought of pursuing a career in art until he was 14, when he started to take drawing more seriously.

In 2017 he applied for university in the UK and started his studies at UCA, where he is being trained in 3D modelling and animation software.

His interests include photography, art and mindfulness, he enjoys spending time outdoors.

Megan Robson


I’m currently a 2nd year studying Computer Animation Arts at UCA Rochester. 

For a while I’ve been creating art both digital and traditional, it wasn’t until college I started to develop and take drawing more seriously. I have the interest to learn all forms of art as I have a passion for expressing my creativity. 

Apart from creating my other interests include music and video games.

Thomas Sherwood


Born in 1993 in Kent I spent my later youth training for a career in the military. After getting cold feet I found myself working in the Health Sector as a Health Care Assistant in multiple establishments and am currently experiencing my seventh year in this role.

In 2014, the later years of this period I found and fell in love with my Fiance and promptly moved to Medway in order to be with her. I soon discovered a love for film and drawing which blossomed into the form of creating Youtube videos and exploring the various Adobe media products in order to weave greater experiences for my viewers. 

I enlisted in the University of Creative Arts in Rochester for Computer Animation in 2017; I am currently in my second year of the degree and training to become a fully Qualified 3D Animator with a compulsion to explore Directing of Film in great detail.

The Wrong Response to a Backfired Mugging - Production Art

Prompts · Brainstorming

Today the team got together and decided to work on possible prompts for the final animation. Here are the outcomes of the meeting. The Wrong Response to... ‘I love you’ The characters kiss and they are suddenly able to look at their future together. When they stop kissing they know they could not be together. The character freezes and starts walking backwards until they are at home (reverse). The character runs away leaving a cardboard cut out. They kiss and one character absorbs the other. A Surprise Party The character enters home for their surprise but no one is there. Normal party but all the guests are on the ceiling and the character is surprised. The character opens the door to all his friends and family, but gets surprised and scared, then runs away. Surprise party but when the lights flicker off the guests disappear then reappear when they come back on (continuous loops of "surprise" being shouted). Strangers that actually like to show up at other ...

Robbery Skit · Evolution

Since picking our prompt some of our ideas have gone through a lot of different changes. This is just a brief run down of how we developed our ideas and got to where we are at.  Location: Alleyway Street Stage with building and Alley props  Victim:  Victim female Victim becomes the robber and robs the original one (abandoned idea) Mary Poppins like bag, robber keeps pulling more and more ideas out  Banana phone pulled from bag confusing the robber (accompanying chosen)  Trampoline used as another ridiculous object to be pulled out, further confusing the robber  Robber hands balloons to victim which he pulls out her bag and she floats away  Police Badge Pulled out of the bag by the robber, causing the robber to run away ( chosen idea) Robber:   Gets angry and snatches victims bag  Climbs into the bag, disappears and bag gets picked up/taken away  Pulls out police badge, realises victim is a polic...
