The UK animation industry is suffering. This year has seen 2 huge studio collapses and layoffs across the board. The same is true with layoffs and closures across the UK games industry. @lisanandy

@newsinglossop Personally, wherever we are local government needs to invest more. @Jon4HighPeak is right about High Peak being ignored but will Tameside really see Glossopdale, a small semi-rural area, as a priority? Build a hospital in High Peak, rebuild local services, stay in Derbyshire.
I NEED you all to go see THE WILD ROBOT. I’m on my hands and knees begging. holy shit. Where the fuck was the marketing for this????? Literal movie of the year. It’s so full of heart and the animation and score are beautiful. Please go see it.
I was really hoping #Astrobot would get middling reviews so I didn't have to buy it the day after buying Star Wars: Outlaws but apparently Sony are getting my entire pay check this month!
Really excited for this game. The mechanics and integration of the 2D/3D visuals seem so smart. The style is fantastic. The puzzles in this game are gonna be mind bending I'm sure!

I may not be at Cubic anymore but there are still a few more releases to go before I'm free! Very proud to have lead the team on this at a very difficult point for production for everyone involved.
Everyone on this team did an amazing job! Congrats to all 👏
Whatever the case, more needs to be done to support animation and games industry employees in and out of work. More also need to be done to support the growth of new start ups in these sectors so knowledge and skill is retained in this turbulent period.

The sky news article above argues that the layoffs are mostly due to the industry over producing during the covid bubble but there's more at play. Work is drying up in Film/TV and large game cooperation's have taken on to much debt buying up studios and expanding teams. 1/2
He's back... with a vengeance.
