Stuart Messinger
Stuart is Producer and Course Lead with Aardman Academy. Stuart has loved Animation, in all its forms, since a very young age and has spent much of his time drawing, making models, making films, putting on puppet shows, telling stories and performing in plays – he still does.
With over 20 years’ experience of working in both Industry and Higher Education, Stuart continues to develop and deliver Animation courses, curriculum content and Industry training and has been lucky enough to have worked with a number of leading educational institutions. He is currently Producer and Course Lead with Aardman Academy, overseeing the design and delivery of our portfolio of Industry Training Courses.
His research interests lie in developing new methods of teaching animation – in pursuit of believability in character animation and performance.
