Taran3D In The News!

Taran3D is in the news again! If you didn’t catch Taran’s recent interview, talking about how we brought Perry, the Birmingham2022 mascot to life on Amber Sandhu’s show, you can listen below.

Taran was asked by Radio WM to discuss the role Taran3D played in helping the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games team bring Perry to life digitally.

A Brummie born & bred, Taran has strong links to the Birmingham2022 jewel in the crown, Alexander Stadium. Living in nearby Handsworth all his life, he even competed in a school sports day at the stadium many moons ago!

Taran said “We are proud to bring Perry to life and be an accessible mascot for the times we live in. Our digital reimagining of Perry helped him travel effortlessly across the globe, meeting new audiences throughout the pandemic. We love seeing all the #PoseWithPerry selfies and have been blown away by the amazing response our animated Perry received.

“Living in Handsworth, I have a lifelong love of my area and community and I can’t wait for the world to see what our city has to offer at Birmingham2022.”
