Ross Lelliott, as the other founding-half of the South Africa based production company, The Hidden Hand Studios (THHS), champions art in all its forms. He has a particular affinity for 2D animation but is a well-rounded creative with talents spanning digital painting, storyboarding, layout, background & landscape painting, graphic design and illustration. Through his work on Genndy Tartakovsky’s Emmy Award winning animated series, Primal, along with the development of the Super Scientist initiative, Ross gained a renewed appreciation for the value of African talent to the animation industry as a whole. He’s committed making sure Black creatives are further incorporated into every stage of the storytelling process, starting with the work he’s doing at THHS.
