how could i have forgot to mention Nick park and the guys at Aardman Animation. the prolific creators behind the legendary Wallace and Gromit animations.Nick Park was born in Preston in Lancashire, England, and attended Cuthbert Mayne High School (now Our Lady's Catholic High School) then the national film and television school up in london. He grew up with a keen interest in drawing cartoons, and as a 13-year old made films with the help of his mother – who was a dressmaker – and her home movie camera and cotton bobbins. He also took after his father, an amateur inventor, and would send items – such as a bottle that squeezed out different coloured wools – to Blue Peter. He studied Communication Arts at Sheffield Polytechnic (now Sheffield Hallam University) and then went to the National Film and Television School, where he started making the first Wallace and Gromit film, A Grand Day Out.
