Inside the Company
Founded in 2010, Art&Graft is now celebrating its tenth anniversary. The growing studio team, based in East London, currently comprises 12 members who pride themselves on a collaborative approach to projects.
The group has a wide skill set, covering a variety of visual styles and techniques across character animation, motion design, branding and illustration.
Mission and Values
It’s all in the name: Art&Graft work hard to create magic. This approach has underpinned the studio from the very beginning and continues to define it today.
Beautifully executed concepts achieved through collaboration and teamwork; the shared skills within the studio team combining and moving forwards together to create and deliver more than the sum of their individual parts.
Collaboration and teamwork are fundamental to the 'magic' of Art&Graft's work
Culture and Benefits
The culture at Art&Graft is centred around a tight-knit studio team. This is rooted in the idea that being part of a collaborative team can be fulfilling and that shared skills can achieve more together; an exciting opportunity to work on great projects and to be part of something bigger.
As such, the studio doesn’t represent individual directors, and focuses much more on a team of dedicated creative minds joining forces to produce globally recognised projects with the support, security and consistency that being part of a team brings.
Entry-Level Opportunities
Art&Graft is always on the lookout for young talent – those with a natural understanding of design and animation, who can demonstrate a strong conceptual approach to their work.
With the support of the entire creative team at their disposal, every member of Art&Graft can take the creative lead on a project – junior members included. That ability to contribute ideas is the most important aspect of entry-level experience at the studio.
The company also runs an internship programme every year, often linking with design and animation courses from universities and colleges across the UK and Europe.
