My son absolutely loves attending the Mako Create sessions. He isn't particularly 'sporty' so it's nice to have an after school/weekend activity he can get involved with that isn't sports related. He... See more

Animation Club

My son attended the Animation Club in Winsford and absolutely loved it. It’s inspired him to learn more about computer animation.
He would be interested in further animation or coding clubs. Please come back to Winsford!

My son gained a lot from this course.

This club really made my son feel more confident and let him solidify his decision into becoming an animator after he finishes his GCSE's. It has let him meet more people and become friends and was a lot happier attending the club every week. Thanks to Ian, James, Lee and Sean.

Animation workshops - Winsford

The animation workshops were great! Both girls really enjoyed their sessions and were very proud to be able to show their parents their work once they got home. They learned such a lot and it was in a very relaxing environment with no pressure. Super friendly and knowledgable staff. This has inspired one of the attendees to request the software used to do her own animations now as it has sparked an avid interest. Great job guys.

fun and educational for creative kids :)

My daughter took part in a six week course, the staff were enthusiastic and knowledgeable. The content was aimed at the right level to engage the kids and each child managed to produce media by the end of each session, that could later be viewed by friends and family online. A thoroughly enjoyable experience.

Thankyou MakoCreate for todays Lego…

Thankyou MakoCreate for todays Lego stop motion animation workshop! My son George absolutely loved creating his Lego Film, both of you were really helpful and polite teaching everyone. This has boosted George’s confidence so much, he has come straight home to get stuck into another one 😁 Thankyou again, we can’t wait for the next workshop!

Excellent animation session

We really enjoyed this first session and the girls are excited about the next one and are even planning their storyboards! You can tell they thought it was fantastic because they talked about it all the way home and were delighted to show their parents when they got back! Patient and caring staff - highly recommend! Confidence building!

Fab workshop!

We attended the Lego stop motion workshop and my little boy loved it! He was already making stop motion videos and I was worried it might be a bit too basic for him but he picked up lots of hints and tips and absolutely loved seeing his video on You Tube! Fab course, well worth the money. He’s excited by the possibility of an advanced course!

Lego Stop-Motion Animation

Good workshop. My son is 6 and he loved it. He got to make an animation and it's impressive to see it on Youtube.
Sean leads the workshop well and is approachable. Any help you need with your video he will sort you out.

It's a relaxed space to learn in and has given me that extra bit of know-how to get my son started with stop-motion animation.

Fantastic ClayMation workshop

What a fantastic workshop! My daughter did the Claymation workshop, as part of the Manchester Animation Festival, and is was SO GOOD! Andy & Sean were so enthusiastic and helpful - and so engaging. It couldn't have been better. We loved her little claymation video - such a great memory and she learnt so many new skills! Thank you!
