How do you explain dementia to an 8-year-old?
That was the question sitting in the room when an Alzheimer's charity came to us. And it was the moment we realised our best work has nothing to do with animation.

Our founder, Dann Casswell, sat with their team and listened. Before a single word of script was written, he needed to understand the families they were trying to reach, what they were feeling, what they were afraid of, what they needed to hear.
How do you tell a child that the person who loves them most might forget their name without forgetting them?

We gathered feedback from young people. Rewrote the script. Rewrote it again. Used children's voices in the film. We kept going until it didn't just inform, it reassured.
That's what every collaboration looks like at CC Animation Studio.
We specialise in healthcare, social care, mental health and research.
Sectors where getting communication wrong has real consequences for real people. The animation is what the audience sees.
The real work is everything we build with you before that.

We take on work we care about, work that helps people, and work that inspires us to do our best to make our clients' impossible jobs just that little bit easier.

This April and May, we're donating £100 for the basic package and £150 for the premium package to the Mental Health Foundation via Work for Good in support of Mental Health Awareness Week 2026.
Because this is the work we care about. It always has been.
If you have a project in mind, we'd love to hear about it.

Your research has the power to change things.
The question is, how do you make sure the right people actually see it?

We've spent over 10 years helping researchers, NHS teams, and universities turn complex work into animations that people genuinely connect with. Not because it looks nice, but because it makes your message land. People remember when something made them feel and connect.

A 90-second animation can do what pages of text can't. It meets people where they are, in the moments they actually have.

If you're sitting on research that deserves a wider audience, we'd love to help you shape it into something clear, accessible, and worth sharing.
We handle everything: script, storyboard, animation, voiceover. You just share your work with us.

And this spring, every project also contributes to the Mental Health Foundation through our Spring Forward campaign, which runs from April to May.

“Why do many patients misunderstand important healthcare information?”

It’s not because the information isn’t provided.

It’s often because patients are already anxious, overwhelmed, or fearful, making complex medical information difficult to process.

Sometimes there are also cultural and educational differences between healthcare providers and patients, which can make complex medical information harder to understand.

People with low health literacy may struggle with long or written materials, making it difficult to fully engage with important health decisions like screenings or treatment options.

This is where animation plays an important role in healthcare.

📝Research published in Frontiers in Digital Health in 2025 shows that animation is effective at improving patient knowledge (80% of trials), attitudes (53%), and behaviours (63%)compared with traditional written materials.

Animation helps patients understand information faster and feel more confident about their care.

At CC Animation, we simplify complex healthcare and research ideas into engaging animations, designed with accessibility standards.❤️

🎬 New Animation Release!

When creating this film, we knew it needed to speak to many people at once. Some viewers are healthcare professionals looking for clear information about the For Me Provider Collaborative and how to make a referral. Others may be patients — or their loved ones — approaching the topic of secure mental health for the very first time.

Because secure mental health can feel overwhelming or emotional, especially during difficult moments, it was essential that the animation offered more than just information. It needed to be clear, accessible, reassuring, and sensitive — a resource that helps people understand the journey ahead while feeling supported.

We’re proud to share this animation and hope it offers clarity and comfort to everyone who may need it. 💙
