We headed along to @waywordabdn on Saturday for “Animation and Storytelling: Bringing Characters to Life”, a brilliant conversation between traditional oral storyteller @davidhughesstoryteller and BAFTA-winning animator @willandersonjr From folklore and storytelling to character-led animation, the discussion explored how voice, personality, movement and imagination can turn characters into something audiences remember long after the story ends. A really inspiring afternoon exploring the connection between storytelling, animation and the different ways we bring characters to life. #WayWORDFestival #Animation #Storytelling #CharacterAnimation #ScottishAnimation #Aberdeen #AberdeenCreatives #AnimationCommunity #CreativeScotland #WillAnderson #DavidHughes 22 likes · 0 comments · 06 Oct 2026 Got an animation to share?

From his creative process and approach to animation and design, to navigating challenging briefs and finding ways to unlock your creative superpowers, it was a great reminder of just how many different paths a career in animation can take. We loved hearing about Rob’s experiences and seeing how his varied skillset has shaped his work as a freelance animator and designer in Glasgow. Thanks to Rob and KIN for a really inspiring talk! #aberdeenanimates #rotatefest #kin #bitsofbobs #robjohnson #animation #animationscotland #motiondesign #motiongraphics #illustration #design #creativeprocess #creativecareers #animationcommunity #aberdeencreatives #scottishanimation #freelanceanimator 17 likes · 1 comments · 21 Sep 2026 Help shape Aberdeen Animates 2027!
