Animation Contacts

Well, Nick finally contacted me with some contact details for Hot Animation and Cosgrove Hall Animation. Here's his email:

Hi Alistair,
Well I turned my computer on to e-mail you and there was your message! Here are the contacts for both Hot Animation studios in Altrincham, South Manchester & Cosgrove Hall films in Chorlton cum hardy, Manchester.
They are both studios filming stop motion pre school animation and the company I work for (Mackinnon & Saunders) makes the puppets for both.

Hot Animation
Bob the Builder, Pingu, Etc.
Speak to Donna or Lianne in personnel and get clearence to contact Liz Whittaker ( animation director ) I have spoken to her already and she will probably deal with you or pass you on to Judd the animator. Either way, you will hopefully be able to look round, show your work and get to speak to Liz and Judd.

Cosgrove Hall Films
Rupert, postman pat, Fifi & the flowertots, Engie benjy,
Speak to Chris Bowden ( Senior producer ) who will put you in touch with Haydn Secker ( animation director ) who can show you round and introduce you to the aminators.
If you need to mention that Nick Roberson from M&S put you in contact with them then thats O.K. It might be possible that if you visit them on the same day I will be around to show you around M&S but I am only there some of the time.
Good luck,
Nick.

The only problem now is that I don't know how to contact Cosgrove Hall. Their site is under construction and so they have no details about contacting them. I've sent an email back to Nick asking if he can provide me with one. I want to have a number for both before I start calling up.
