Bristol animation company A Productions has been named among the best places to work in television at a prestigious awards ceremony.
The Colston Street business has now been twice honoured with a Best Places to Work in TV accolade.
The awards event is run by Broadcast magazine in collaboration with the Workforce Research Group.
The awards aim to identify and recognise outstanding employers in the TV production industry, with workplaces reviewed and rated on criteria such as staff satisfaction and rewards, training, fairness and work environment.

A Productions joint managing director, Katherine McQueen, said: “We are honoured to have been named one of the best places to work in TV for a second time – what a fantastic start to the year.
“Our success in creating award-winning, iconic content is only possible thanks to the incredible team of creatives behind it.
“We strive to make our studio a fun, diverse and supportive environment and we’re proud to have that recognised with this award.”
The industry accolade comes at an exciting time for A Productions as the company moves into developing its own creator-driven content alongside its ever-expanding list of commissioned animation productions.
