WHO are we?
Kino Bino animation studio is run by co-directors Steff & Jack. Based in Leicester, UK, working in the city’s vibrant cultural quarter, alongside our network of animators, illustrators, designers, and musicians.
The team first met whilst working as animators at an online primary education company. Steff left to start her own, successful animation and illustration company (Steff Lee Studios) eventually persuading Jack to join her, and thus Kino Bino was born. In 2020 Bella joined them as their producer - bringing to the team her wealth of experience from producing the award-winning series Pingu & Bob the Builder.
“They realised what we wanted when no one else did – the creativity and perceptiveness at the studio was exceptional. Everything was at a high standard, from the animation itself to the dealings we had with Steff and Jack – both really warm at the same time as being very professional.”
