Tapocketa
Small indie animation duo. First showcase adventure is a digital book with movie-illustrations called Galdo's Gift.
Our illustrated poems and short animations are for children and big kids alike. They will delight and intrigue you... We make drawings, models and paper cut-outs we then transform into intriguing characters and extensive theatre sets in a digital world. We use traditional illustration methods as a springboard to produce high quality books, apps and ebooks along with related print media, games and fun stuff.. This FB page shares snippets of our work as we make it.
Messing around for Valentine's.... wait for the animation...
Exciting year coming up with some exciting news being sent out to our mailing list soon.

The Tapocketa Story
Founded by feature film visual effects artist Trevor Young alongside sculptor, model-maker and Royal College of Art Masters alumni, Eleanor Long, Tapocketa is an animation company with a difference...
‘We’ve arrived in the world of animation from a very different route to the norm. This has, in turn, meant our approach has not been informed by the traditional development processes of animation, although we have drawn on traditional styles and influences.
We make drawings, models and paper cut-outs we then transform into intriguing characters and extensive theatre sets in animated, absorbing digital worlds. We produce high quality animated stories and online publications.
We also offer our skills to those who want to engage their customer or followers with eye-catchingly different content, using either their own artwork or bespoke material created by us.
