Jim Parkyn - sculptor, model maker and character designer.
With over 20 years in the animation industry, Jim has been involved in many best loved animations for Aardman Animations, the BBC and many other clients. As a sculptor, model maker and character designer Jim is the helping hand behind many classic characters including Wallace and Gromit, Shaun The Sheep, Creature Comforts and animated feature films and commercials.
When not making modelling clay magic in the studio he can be found in schools and universities, festivals and corporate team building sessions sharing a lifelong passion for plasticine.
Jim has not only added his touch of unique character and personality to many animations but is also a character designer for plush toy manufacturers and brands. If this wasn’t enough he also has his own studio where he creates small films and online films for brands and charities.
With a passion for wildlife and natural history and a studio set in woodland in an old water mill close to Bristol you can even join Jim for art and animation classes both inside and out amongst the trees.
