THE TALL TREE TALES is an original anthropomorphic story for print and screen.

Blending noir crime, animist folklore and ecological fable, it is a tale of loss and redemption, told in nature, ‘red in tooth and claw’.

More to come...

This month, we were delighted to welcome @studioaka to our London campus as part of our 'An Evening With...' series of student-exclusive talks.

Creative Director and Founder, Philip Hunt and Animation Director, Marcus Armitage came in to show our student audience how a whole range of client projects in varied animation styles are brought to life at the studio behind award-winning films and shows such as 'Lost and Found' and 'Hey Duggee'. This was followed by a Q&A, so students could ask their follow up questions about projects and the animation industry.

A huge thank you to @philipalso and @marcusanimation for a fascinating talk! To learn more about what they covered, head to our #LinkinBio 🏃‍♀️

“Each Ibogaine sequence has something tangible and relatable at its core. From this foundation, the subjects recollection diverges into its own accented and unique perspective. For the sequences featuring Marcus Capone, I was struck by the paradox of a confident, robust individual describing his utter helplessness as he tumbles through an unknown chaos, assailed by swarms of family photos from all sides. Marcus‘s turmoil peaks in an abyssal void when he confronts a literal wall made of his most personal memories, a barrier he can't overcome. But in confronting his desperation, clarity and understanding emerge and, ultimately, some release.”

In a relentless descent through fragmented memory, Marcus Capone reaches an abyssal plain — where he is confronted with a vast wall of photographs where childhood scars and wartime loss converge. It is a catharsis which finally liberates him.

In Waves And War - out on @netflix on the 3rd Nov.

AKA animation director Philip Hunt opens new documentary ‘In Waves And War’ within a haunting void — as Marcus Capone is suspended in free fall, he’s swept up into a maelstrom of memories as fragments of his past spiral around him in a torrent of family photographs.

Coming soon to @netflix on the 3rd Nov.

Our latest work for IN WAVES AND WAR — Out on Netflix Nov 3rd!

A feature documentary exploring the transformative journeys of former Navy SEALs using psychedelic therapies like Ibogaine to heal from TBI and PTSD.
We don’t often tell military stories, but the power of psychedelic therapy to foster empathy, reflection, and awareness drew us in.

Directors @jonshenk & @bcshenk, and producer @j_anthony_510 at @actualfilmsdocs, challenged us to bring these inner and outer battles to life through animation.

Four AKA directors. Four unique visual voices.
One seamless story of trauma, treatment, and transformation.

Stay tuned for a closer look at each director’s work.
