About Us
Our Story
Winding Snake aims to open up the experience of making animation and of developing media literacy skills to people and communities across Wales. In practical terms, this means taking the latest digital equipment into any location in Wales in order to work with a broad cross-section of people of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds, although in particular, we work with young people. Our track record in community film making has gained us an international reputation, and our films have been featured and won awards at film festivals across the world.
We run a diverse range of workshops, training, and Continuing Professional Development (CPD) sessions in film making, animation, media literacy for teaching staff, and for businesses outside of the creative sector. For more information about this see the section on Workshops and Training. We can also help you with Project Management, offering bespoke support in project planning and fundraising.
