Getting animated with Ritzy

Animation students continue to learn from one of the brightest young agencies in the business, with Ritzy Animation founder and director Charlie Batho visiting the university to share his insights this academic year.

The boss from the London-based agency was interviewed by final-year undergraduate Phi Bewick as part of our Festival of Creative Industries and Charlie is continuing to feedback on students’ work and take their questions.

Charlie said: “It’s been a pleasure and fascinating for Ritzy to support the work of students at the School of Creative Industries over the past two years, providing career guidance, confidence-building workshops, feedback on student ideas, and work placement opportunities.”
