An illustrator and animator, Aisha Ibrahim Al-Jaidah began her career in 2010 as a motion graphics artist at Al Jazeera Children’s Channel. Then, as a senior animation producer, she created the first animated children’s series created by a Qatari local in Doha. Al-Jaidah pursued her dream and recieved a scholarship to study animation and graduated from Kingston University London, an achievement that motivated her to launch her own animation production company. She hopes Blue Penguin Animation will be one of the first companies in Qatar to fully produce animation locally.
