The creators of Chicken Run and the Wallace & Gromit series share the inside story of their Oscar award-winning animation company.

Aardman Animations was founded in 1972 by Peter Lord and David Sproxton. Joined by animator Nick Park in 1985, Aardman pioneered a quirky, lovable style of stop-motion animation and brought to life a string of unforgettable movies and television shows, including the highest-grossing stop-animated film of all time, Chicken Run.

With A Grand Success!, Lord, Sproxton, and Park tell the 45-year history of Aardman. From their first short films, made on a lark on their kitchen table, to advertisements and music videos, A Grand Success! recounts the adventures and challenges of developing their own unique style, growing their business, working with famous actors, and conquering Hollywood, all while animating at 24 painstaking moves per second.

Peter Lord and David Sproxton are the founders of Aardman Animations. Lord has been nominated for three Academy Awards, including the award for Best Animated Feature for the 2012 film The Pirates!, which he directed. Nick Park is the writer, director, and animator who created Wallace & Gromit and Shaun the Sheep. Park has been nominated for six Academy Awards and has won four. Lord, Sproxton, and Park live in England.
