Steve Edge Director at Tiger Aspect

Steve Edge

Many congratulations to Escapee Steve Edge, who has joined Tiger Aspect Productions as an animation director.

Tiger Aspect is a leading UK animation production house, responsible for hits such as Mr Bean, Danny & Mick, and Captain Underpants.  Tiger Aspect Productions is located in Shepherd's Bush, London.

Steve studied animation at Escape Studios, on our animation short course, and used the training to launch his career.  Like Escapee Rich Jeffrey, Steve has used his skills to become an animation director. 

Animation at Escape Studios

At Escape Studios, Steve was taught 3D by Dan Schutt, one of our longest-serving tutors, and he learned animation from Jeff Pratt, who first launched the animation department at Escape Studios after working at both NASA and Pixar Animation.

Animation director
Steve's success shows how transferable the skills learned at Escape Studios can be. A skilled 3D animator can apply those skills to many areas of production - including directing animation.

Steve isn't the only Escapee to go on to direct at Tiger Aspect. Rich Jeffrey, who took our animation short course a few years back, also followed the same path.
