About JK Studios Ltd
JumpKick Studios is an award winning creative studio, producing 3D Animation, Visual Effects (VFX), video and digital content for a variety of media - including TV, Video Games, Marketing and the web.
Working as the creative driving force behind all projects, the studio is run by James Kearsley.
I started working freelance in 2004 and established my own company in 2010. Since then I've had the pleasure of working with some great clients on amazing projects over the years, including CBBC, Codemasters, Virgin and Sega to name a few.
During my time on these projects, I've worked as a 2D/3D animator, modeller, compositor, video game animator and VFX artist, concept artist, editor, web designer, VFX supervisor and art director (phew! ) - each time with the same strong emphasis on creativity and quality, adhering to tight deadlines and always delivering on time, within budget.
I've always taken a hands-on approach, dealing with all aspects of design, production and creative direction where necessary, giving me the ability to see a project from many angles. Applying this experience to a clients brief, it means I can take a multi-media approach and scale a production team to suit.
This allows an unrestricted approach and the opportunity to come up with ideas outside of the box - and the chance for me to flex my creative muscle, bringing your vision to life in the most effective way.
But don't just take our word for it - have a look at some of our previous projects and our testimonials, below.
