Magic Light Pictures at 20

For two decades Magic Light Pictures have brought audiences old and young together through their enchanting animations. Adapting adored characters and stories into screen marvels. We’ve grappled with the Gruffalo, found Room on the Broom, discovered the family tree with Stick Man, pilfered sweet treats with the Highway Rat, flown high with Zog, met Snails, Whales, Superworms, Smeds, Smoos and even found time to recite Revolting Rhymes!

Working with a tightknit team of some of the best directors and designers in the business to produce contemporary classics the team have lovingly adapted some of the most memorable characters of the modern age to the screen, brining both magic and light to the picture books and earning their title.

Join company co-founders Martin Pope and Michael Rose as we take a look back on 20 years through film and learn the story of the studio and how a working friendship led to one of the most successful animation production studios in British history.
