ACME Whistles Birmingham – A 150th year milestone animation created to celebrate the number one whistle company in Birmingham
150 Years in the Making

One man at ACME Whistles in 1870 had an idea which shaped a journey, that still continues to this day.
ACME Whistles, founded by Joseph Hudson, began life in Birmingham and soon became the world leader in the world-class whistle making industry. As ACME celebrates its 150th year of history, it is safe to say that ACME Whistles has more than a few tales to tell. We were overjoyed when they asked us to help them tell their storey in a fresh, imaginative manner.
Capturing more than a century and a half of history in just 90 seconds is no small feat, (we could talk about it all day) but through thoughtful scriptwriting, creative thinking and clever animation we think we’ve done just that.
To understand so much about ACME along the way has been an absolute privilege! Here’s to the next 150 years!
Watch the animation below.
