AN ANIMATION company from Teesside is celebrating its work being aired on NickToons, the UK animation channel.

The Nickelodeon team was so impressed with a taster animation they found online that they commissioned husband and wife team Talib and Sarah Kadhim at Back 2 Front Animation to produce six humorous shorts.

Mr Kadhim, creative director, said: “We’ve always been a massive fan of Nickelodeon and had often thought about approaching them with our work.

When they approached us earlier this year after seeing our taster online we were so excited.”

The couple are enjoying demand for their animated Christmas cards.

They also produce animations in 2D and 3D, visual effects, illustration, sculptures and high end post production services.
