WELCOME TO UWE ANIM 2022!!

From cancelled classes, to restricted use of equipment, to the mental strain of working from home and missing out on many of the social aspects of university life, the UWE Animation year of 2022 has experienced all the hardships presented by multiple lockdowns. It has not been easy, but we’ve come out of the other end stronger, more adaptable, in many cases more resourceful, and, most importantly, with the work to show for it. As proof and as celebration, we are proud to present our summer degree show! Come to Bower Ashton between the 11th and 19th of June to see a marvellous range of final year work, from physical models to films and showreels. We hope you enjoy strolling through the first floor of G Block, exploring the diverse, original and brilliant work which our coursemates created in their final year.

The Committee

Meet the committee – a group of BA and MA students from our year who devoted themselves to bringing to life a degree show which would do justice to all the hard work and struggle our coursemates have gone through. We wanted sincerely to create the kind of space we think our coursemates’ work deserves, and we hope you will see for yourself and decide if we were successful!

Behind the Logo

Designed by Eden Fixman, the chimeric logo is a nod to the diversity of style and technique demonstrated by UWE’s animators. Whether it’s with CG, stop-motion, tradigital, rigged, pen on paper, or a hybrid thereof, our students have been pouring all of their passion and enthusiasm into their final work. There is also perhaps a hint of homage to a certain fish-terrorising tutor one might glimpse in the Bower Ashton halls.
