Andrew Grindle
Hello, I’m Grindle, an award-winning animator and illustrator with 18 years of experience creating animation for children’s TV, mobile games, and corporate and consumer content.
Storytelling is at the heart of my work. I love combining motion, design, and music production to craft engaging narratives, and I’m happiest when I can contribute across the entire creative process - from early concepts to final delivery.

Nick Cope's Popcast (CBBC)
Nick Cope's Popcast is a CBBC TV series fronted by singer/songwriter Nick Cope.
I worked on all 3 series, rigging and animating the main and more complex characters using Esoteric Spine. The main characters tend to wear a lot of different costumes in each episode, so the re-skinning capabilities of Spine made it the obvious software choice for the series.
