Smash parties, talking vulvas and Big Mouth: inside Titmouse animation studio

Chris and Shannon Prynoski make distinctly adult animated series - then let their employees unwind by smashing stuff up. Now the duo are coming to terms with hitting the big time

Animation is an anarchic medium. Anything can happen. In the hit Netflix show Big Mouth, hormone monsters haunt pubescent teens, characters surf waves of their own menstrual blood and the class clown forms a bisexual romantic attachment with a pair of anthropomorphic pillows.

Behind the scenes at Titmouse, the animation studio that brought Big Mouth to life, things can get pretty anarchic, too.
