Thanks very much to Sara Leatherland and all of the team at Kanoti for running this competition. We’re also very grateful to everyone who tweeted about the competition, and shared the press release around – this really made a big difference, and we’d love to get everyone sharing the excitement in the same way as Museums at Night weekend nears.

Kanoti will be screening all these animations and many more as part of Bamboozled 2 in Jubilee Square, outside Jubilee Library in the centre of Brighton, on Friday 14th May from 9 – 10pm. I went along to their outdoor animation screening last year, which was fantastic fun, and would definitely recommend it this year too!
