‘Chicken Run’ studio Aardman cuts jobs after posting $720,000 loss amid market “challenges”
deadline.comAardman, the iconic UK animation studio behind Chicken Run and Wallace & Gromit, has closed around 20 jobs as it grapples with the increased cost of production.
Deadline understands that Aardman is in the process of making less than 5% of its 425 employees redundant following a savings review undertaken by management.
A third of the redundancies were voluntary, while two roles remain in consultation. It is hoped that some of the individuals who have lost their jobs can return to Aardman on a freelance basis.
