Rogue Trooper

We were huge fans of 2000AD when we were kids. We all loved Judge Dredd, he kicked ass and took names! But we here at Freakish Kid were also secret lovers of Rogue Trooper – no one was cooler! So one afternoon, between projects, we asked ourselves what we should do for some fun. We just couldn’t believe that an animated... 

Fayez

Cartoon Netwrk ID’s: Weight Lifter

The second of our Cartoon Network Idents. This one was pretty straight forward and one of the chosen ideas that did not involve a Cartoon Network show. It’s always great to take a logo or famous brand and add your own ideas to it and the guys at CNUK we’re behind this one all the way. We did change the ending slightly,... 

Cartoon Network ID’s: Scooby Doo

We were commissioned by Cartoon Network to produce a series of idents for the European feed. First up for us was an old favourite of ours – Scooby Doo.

Muddle Earth

We recently did a design and test for a BBC show called Muddle Earth – from the childrens book by Paul Stewart. The series was intended to be produced in 3D but because of budget restrictions the producer was looking for a different way of making the show. That’s where we stepped in! We were asked to produce a small demo... 

Bittersweet Music Video

We recently finished a live action production for the popular singer Mark Zentai who is based in Hungary. The track is called Bittersweet and tells the age-old story of lost love and a broken heart. The video was shot in the warehouse district of Budapest among other locations. It’s a really fascinating place not just because...
