Senior🎓
Top SchoolStuart Aitken is a co-founder and Co-Managing Director of Axis Animation in Glasgow with over two decades in 3D animation and production leadership, having grown the studio from a four-person founding team to around 50 creatives and freelancers. As a former CG Supervisor and Technical Director he blends hands-on pipeline and tools development with strategic business operations and long-term R&D programs. Stuart continues to supervise and direct client projects, bringing practical studio-level oversight to complex VFX and animation deliveries. Educated at The Glasgow School of Art in design, he pairs creative design foundations with technical supervision experience dating back to lead artist roles in the late 1990s. An operator who still codes and prototypes internal tools, he’s comfortable switching between studio strategy and the technical minutiae that keep production running smoothly.
