Philip Sibson is the founder of Animotion, where he develops artist-controlled AI tools designed to support traditional animation workflows. His work explores how emerging technologies such as machine learning and computer vision can augment creative practice, helping artists reduce repetitive production tasks while preserving the expressive qualities of hand-crafted animation.
With a background in deep-tech entrepreneurship and technology development, Philip has previously led multidisciplinary teams bringing advanced technologies from concept to market. Alongside this technical experience, he has a long-standing personal interest in animation as a creative medium.
Through Animotion, he is exploring how AI can be integrated thoughtfully into professional animation pipelines to make hand-drawn and stop-motion techniques more accessible and commercially viable. His work focuses on building tools that empower artists, expand creative possibilities, and bridge the gap between emerging technology and traditional craft.
