Dave Osborne’s Expertise Dave Osborne – Director I have been professionally involved with animation for 35 years and as a director for 27 years working on numerous animated television shows for broadcast both in the UK and abroad. I originally trained and worked as a 2D animator and have a numerous directing credits starting with the TV series Wiggly Park in 2D animation for BBC and Nick Jr in the 1990s. I have worked for many different companies as Director and Series Director both in CGI animation and 2D Animation. I directed The Cubeez, one of the first animated series to be made in the UK using a full CGI pipeline. After this I worked at Cosgrove Hall Films as a director on a long form series Shadow of the Elves. I went on to direct 39 episodes of Friends and Heroes, broadcast on the BBC and in the US. I then directed a CGI series called The 99 adapted from the comic book of the same name. The production included a feature length episode along with 52 x 22-minute CGI animated episodes that I directed. After completing this I set-up my own company Zest Animation Ltd and had contracts with Cosgrove Hall Fitzpatrick Co-Directing Pip Ahoy! and M2 Entertainment Ltd as Series Director where I was responsible for LEGO Nexo Knights. This long form Comedy Action-Adventure series aired on Cartoon Network and was associated with a major toy range where my role involved liaising between the creative production and the toy design departments at LEGO. This was followed by being Series Director on The Animated Mr Bean working with Tiger Aspect. After completing this I helped on some projects at Moonbug and directed a series of comedy shorts called Arpo. I was Series Director on a TV series called Supa Team 4 for Triggerfish Animation and CAKE Entertainment. Its a Comedy Action-Adventure serial about 4 African girls who become Superheroes. Its very cool, funny and entertaining. You can find the first 8 episodes on Netflix with another eight to come Currently I am Series Director on an unannounced project for Tiger Aspect Kids.
