We worked with local Dundee client Christine Brown who has the most zestful passion for working with and taking care of children in her hometown of Kirriemuir, Scotland. From experience, Christine had discovered that there were lots of books for kids who were about to start school but none for younger children who were starting at a new childminder, so she popped her thinking cap on and set about writing! The book, which reflects her business space and stars her husband as a child, deals with children’s nerves of anticipation and outlines what they can expect to see at a childminder to assuage their fears and show how much fun they can have. Having had her book illustrated by local artist Amy Halliday, Christine wanted to bring this book to life through the playful motion medium of animation… and we were very happy to oblige!

‘Having created a beautifully playful animation for Teenie Tots Childminding Service in Kirriemuir (Scotland) salamandra.uk is taking lockdown in its stride and winning awards for both themselves and their wonderful clients. The latest of which has been the new silver Latitude Film Award for their animated short based on the book, ‘My First Day at Teenie Tots’.’
