Our year in review: 2019

  • 16th December 2019
  • Blog, Motion Design

2019 has been quite an incredible year for us at Blue Spill, here’s the low down in bite size pieces! This year we have designed > 

2 narrative feature films
9 television series
11 feature documentaries 

We also completed VFX on In The Long Run (with Bill Bailey & Idris Elba, BBC), Singapore Grip (ITV) and Gangs of London  (Sky Atlantic, Cinemax)

Our films this year have premiered at Sundance Film Festival, SXSW, Tribeca Film Festival, BFI London Film Festival, Sheffield Doc Fest and also premiered on Netflix, Amazon, BBC 1, Channel 4, ITV, Discovery.

Our top five moments of 2019

  1. Being nominated for a BAFTA (okay, still excited about that one!)
  2. Hitting the incredible milestone of having designed for 20 Sundance films (!)
  3. Working with Alex Gibney, was such a pleasure
  4. Winning the Broadcast Tech Award for our title sequence for Take Your Pills
  5. Allison judging at the D&AD awards (VFX category)

New Team Members

We’re very pleased to have three new team members join the studio, designers Perry and Linda and production co-ordinator James. We’ve also been working with a range of incredibly talented artists throughout the year, including Mairéad Ryan, Jamie Kendell, Alessandra Boeri and Sylvain Doussa.

New Studio Space

To accommodate our new team members we’ve taken on additional space within our Brewer Street studio, and also have additional space for working with our freelancers. We moved in over summer and have spent some time putting the space together thoughtfully. We’re super pleased with the results. So we’re now running our original space, and this additional one, essentially taking over more of the floor of our building!

Looking Forward

2020 is already looking very exciting! After early January Sundance delivery deadlines, we have several projects continuing across over into 2020 with deliveries in the first quarter. We’ve also been working incredibly hard on a personal project, which is entering the final stages and will be releasing into the world 2020. More on that later!

We absolutely love what we do, and are borderline obsessed with our work and delivering our very best to our clients. As a boutique studio we’re constantly learning and growing, driven by our passion for film. We’re very excited about our upcoming projects, and looking forward to seeing what’s new on the horizon!
