Monster Makes, a new dual live action and animation show that encourages pre-schoolers to embrace their creativity, has launched on CBeebies and BBC iPlayer.

Hosted by Rebecca Keatley and the lovable Murphi, an animated monster with a penchant for inventive creations, Monster Makes is commissioned by BBC Children’s and Education for CBeebies and produced by Terrific Television with animation provided by A Productions. Fun and furry, Murphi’s simple ethos – that anyone can make something brilliant with a bit of monster magic – is at the heart of each episode.

Animation UK spoke to animation director, Duncan Fraser, to find about A Productions’ approach to its work on the series. Click here to read the full piece.
