Becky & Joe

Becky & Joe are Becky Sloan and Joseph Pelling – directors on a mission to make the world more fun, armed with an adventurous hand-made approach to animation and an absurdist sense of dark humour. They aim to create work with an original new voice, bringing their colourful imaginations to life through experimental craft-focused techniques and tactile materials such as plasticine and felt. Becky & Joe’s fresh and playful style enjoys a cult following worldwide. Their immensely popular short film series  ‘Don’t Hug Me I’m Scared’, offers a humorous and frankly disturbing view on the elusive secret of creativity, taking the conventions of children’s television into new and nightmarish territory.
