Altrincham based multi genre animation studio Factory TM continues to build its team, and has recruited award-winning Corrinne Averiss (CiTV, CBeebies, Cosgrove Hall Fitzpatrick), as Head of Development, to work on a host of new projects.

With twelve years experience at the forefront of the children’s industry, Corrinne has worked alongside household names including Sir David Jason (Pip Ahoy!), Andy Day and Sid Sloane (CBeebies) to name a few. Corrinne also created and produced double BAFTA-winning ‘Share a Story’ for CiTV and is set to open the doors of playful possibility in development at Factory.

Corrinne’s remit at Factory is to work on brands and series to ensure they are built from the inside out, keeping in tune with and respecting audiences tastes.

Corrinne said: “Making any small creative contribution to a child’s experience of the world is a total privilege and the best source of inspiration. Factory’s appetite for blazing new trails and engaging the best talent is what attracted me to the company. It is an environment where creative autonomy is celebrated and supported by an honest desire to entertain the audience and I hope to bring bright ideas, sensitivity and a sense of humour.”

Phil Chalk, Managing Director at Factory comments: “Corrinne is a real asset here at Factory TM. Her experience in directing, scripting, development and producing is second to none and her imaginative, creative mind is just what we need as our number of exciting projects is on the rise. New developments are evolving at a real pace I’m happy to say.”

Prolific creators and award-winning producers of animated content, Factory TM worked on some of the most iconic animated television projects of the last 20 years, including Roary the Racing Car, Fifi and the Flower Tots, Strange Hill High, Clangers and the recently announced Scream Street for CBBC.

From concept through to final delivery, uniquely Factory TM has expertise across all animation disciplines including stop-frame, 3D CGI and 2D.
