About
Storycat
Storycat enables learning for kids through entertaining, innovatively animated series and games. Our animation studio creates characters for live events and any form of interactive edutainment.
Motion Capturing
Thanks to state-of-the-art technology, we can transfer the movement of actors directly to the characters we create. We use special suits and, depending on the application, individual software solutions. We also offer our know-how as a service.
Interactive Educational Games
From day one, we focus on edutainment for children. Interaction plays an important role in learning. To achieve different levels of interaction, we work with various technical solutions –touchscreens and webcams, special cameras, VR, AR or more complex technical installations at events – we try to be creative in order to promote playful learning.
Series & Storyworlds
Captivating characters and stories form the core of our animation formats. Whether in series, games or live events – we know how central a good story is. We think about design and music from the start, as do we think about marketing and scalability. This creates multimedia story worlds that are relevant and to which everyone – whether makers or users – is happy to return again and again.

Animation Series
Händel Junior
The 13-year-old George Frederic Handel leads through the existing Handel exhibition of the Handel House Museum in Halle (Saale) using ten WLAN information points. At each station he tells short stories from his life. In addition, there are three elaborately designed cartoon stories to discover, in which some exhibition rooms completely transform back into 1698 and the everyday world of the talented young music virtuoso.

Initially created as a project within the movie production company Schmidtz Katze Filmkollektiv – www.schmidtzkatze.eu – Storycat Animation soon became an independent company itself. Today, both production companies continue to work hand in hand and, for new projects, can rely on a network of partner companies and freelancers that has grown over the years.
