A+C Studios

In the cool coastal town of Margate, nestled in the charming Victorian Old Laundry building, lies a production house that is taking the animation world by storm. A+C Studios is a creative haven, boasting fully equipped animation, film, and photography studios that are sure to dazzle and inspire.
With six stages at our disposal, including one with a built-in infinity cove, A+C Studios has the capacity to create up to 60 seconds of animation every day. And with our versatile studio complex offering a whopping 5,000 sq ft of production space, the possibilities are endless.
Step inside, and you’ll find three distinct studio spaces, each with its unique vibe and purpose. In addition to the 3 studios, we have a fully equipped model-making workshop, where skilled artisans craft intricate characters and settings with care and precision. The second is a top-tier digital animation studio featuring cutting-edge technology and state-of-the-art software, allowing the team to bring their imaginative visions to life in stunning detail.
And last but certainly not least, there’s the post-production suite, where the magic truly comes together. Here, expert technicians and creatives work tirelessly to add the finishing touches to each project, ensuring that every frame is perfectly polished and ready to captivate audiences.
With everything we need at our fingertips, the team can focus on what they do best: creating world-class animation that transports viewers to new and exciting worlds.

Studio 1

Studio One is a 700 sq feet space with a 24ft x 12ft ’U’shaped infinity cove/CYC.

Studio One can cater for large scale animation, film and photographic shoots. The infinity cove can be painted chroma green or any other colour required before production. The studio has four pre-rigged Space Lights and a 24-channel DMX controlled lighting rig.

Equipment includes DSLRs and various lenses, Dragonframe software, motion control slider and a full range of studio lamps.

Studio 2

Studio Two is a 900 sq feet production space with aerial lighting rigs.

It's a perfect studio for shooting short-form series and smaller-scale productions such as social content, with rostrum capabilities for capturing desktop animation. It can host up to four animation stages/cubicles. Studio Two can be separated with drapes to form three separate shooting areas as required. Equipment includes DSLRs and lenses, Dragonframe software, motion control rig, 10ft x 15ft blue screen and a full range of studio lamps.

Studio 3

Studio Three is a flexible, adaptable space

This studio can host up to two animation stages/cubicles at any one time but can also be used for large scale modelmaking. The modelmaking workshop space can be segregated from the animation space with blackout drapes.

Studio Three is great for shooting small-scale productions of all kinds such as social content, with rostrum capabilities for 'desktop' style animation. Equipment includes DSLRs and various lenses, Dragonframe software, motion control slider and a full range of studio lamps.

Model Making

At the very heart of A+C Studios lies a truly magical space. The model-making workshop is a hub of creativity and ingenuity, where skilled artisans work tirelessly to bring the team's imaginative visions to life. This is where l magic happens, and it's a space that is cherished by all who work at A+C Studios.
The workshop is an essential part of the production process, servicing all three studios and allowing the team to create all puppets, sets, and props in-house. With everything they need at their fingertips, they can build, sculpt, weld, mould, fabricate, and paint everything that will appear on-screen in their mesmerizing animations.
Not only does this in-house workshop save time and money by avoiding costly and time-consuming off-site builds, but it also ensures that the model team is in constant contact with producers and the animation team throughout production.
