Midway Newcastle vets form Atomhawk

A group of former Midway Newcastle employees have formed their own concept and design agency.

Atomhawk Design is based in Gateshead, and is staffed by some of the employees from the defunct Midway studio – which we revealed had been closed in July.

The team is offering a range of services from character, concept and environment design to story-boarding, marketing visuals and video production.

"We have been very fortunate in that we are already working with a handful of top tier clients spread
across the games, film and digital online sectors; I think this is a testament to the quality and creativity of our work, something we are striving to build on to become the "go to" company for creative pre viz," said Cumron Ashtiani, director of the new company.
