Lucy Harris Animation Layout Artist at MPC

Lucy Harris

Many congratulations to Escapee Lucy Harris,  who has started work as a layout artist at MPC in London, having recently started her animation career working at Blue Zoo in London.  MPC is one of the UK's most successful animation and vfx houses, responsible for hits such as the 2019 remake of The Lion King and The Jungle Book.

While at Escape Studios, Lucy worked on a number of award-winning short films, including "March of the Potguins", which won a "Five Star Award" at the British Amateur Film Festival in 2020. 

In 2020 Lucy directed the short sci-fi fantasy "Over Under", which won "Best Animation" at the Flicks Festival and "Most Fabulous Animation" at the Animafantasia Film Fest. 

Studio Assistant

Lucy joined the Escape Studios team as a studio assistant, helping our first year undergraduate animation students to progress in their work, helping to solve technical problems and also offer practical advice on animation techniques.

Studio assistants form an essential part of the feedback process at Escape Studios, one of the pillars of what we call The Escape Method.
