At PlayCraft, we help kids and teens turn big ideas into real creative projects — games, films, comics, animation and more. We teach practical skills in a friendly, focused environment, so young creators build confidence, learn how to think like makers, and leave with work they’re genuinely proud to share.
PlayCraft began with a simple idea:
young people shouldn't just play in creative worlds -they should learn how to build them.
Today’s young people grow up surrounded by incredible creative media — films, games, animation, and graphic novels. But very few have the opportunity to learn how those worlds are actually built.
PlayCraft was created to change that.
We wanted to build a place where young creators could experiment, collaborate, and bring their ideas to life — whether that means directing a short film, designing a video game, animating characters, or creating their own comic.
From the very beginning, our focus has been simple:
give students the tools, guidance, and confidence to turn imagination into creation.
Every class and camp at PlayCraft is designed around that belief.

Alongside directing and overseeing CG animation at Little Moon Animation, Eoghan is passionate about helping the next generation of creators discover how the stories they love are actually made.
Through PlayCraft, he aims to give young creators the opportunity to learn the creative tools and storytelling skills behind filmmaking, animation, games, and comics — and to experience the excitement of bringing their own ideas to life.
Creativity is a skill — and kids learn it best by doing. So we built PlayCraft around these core ideas:
Kids learn faster (and stay more motivated) when they’re building towards something real.
Our kindergarten was founded with a loving vision: to create a happy, safe, and playful environment where young children could begin their learning journey with confidence.
The best creative environments are both supportive and well-organised — with clear goals, patient teaching, and room to experiment.
Younger kids need confidence and foundations. Older kids often want challenge, craft and feedback. PlayCraft offers both — from beginner-friendly camps to studio-style weekly classes for teens.
