Lupus Films is a UK based production company

Lupus Films is a UK based production company set up in London at the beginning of 2002 by Camilla Deakin and Ruth Fielding. This dynamic duo were formerly the commissioning team for Arts and Animation at Channel 4 Television, and were responsible for a variety of critically acclaimed animated films from award winning shorts through to half hour Christmas Specials. Deakin and Fielding's passion for film making and desire to return to the independent production sector led them to launch Lupus Films.

Next came a trilogy of Oscar Wilde's best known children's stories, Wilde Stories (link to productions/wilde stories), produced with TerraGlyph Productions in Ireland and the Irish Film Board.
