Arcus Studios is a 2D animation studio based in Newcastle that creates broadcast animation, promotional videos, video installations, in-house original content and develops new IP. After scouring their site and watching their showreel, I found that although some of the content isn't what I'm looking to do, such as their motion graphics stuff and informative animations, there is also a lot of work that they create that also appealed to me. Although they work to create a lot explainer videos and commercial work, they also create a range of in-house productions that look just plain fun and creative, which is definitely more up my street.
Although the studio appears to be doing well, it is one I've never heard of before, so I was actually really excited when I found a studio that was primarily 2D based and it was in the UK! With me wanting to specialise and focus on producing 2D animation and narrative driven concepts, Arcus is definitely a studio I will keep my eye on. I will also attempt to get in contact with them to ask their opinion on my showreel and see what advice they can offer me about starting out in the industry.
