The Creative Play Awards 2024 have been revealed and we are delighted to announce that HUE Animation Studio has been judged as the Winner in the Teaching Resources category, and as the Highly Commended entry in the Electronics & Multimedia 8 -11yrs category 

“This was easy to set up, with helpful, clear instructions. We tried the no-handed eating, how-to-fly videos and also enjoyed creating stop motion pictures. This is great for a wide age range as everyone can get involved. This was so much fun. It comes with a case so it’s all easily stored. Brilliant.” 

Reviewer comment

“A really nice gadget that can provide hours of fun for children (and adults) to spark imaginations and give an insight into the making of movies. Excellent instruction booklet and useful box that creates a background for making films along with four downloadable backdrops. Would make an ideal present”
