Smallfilms
Smallfilms was a partnership between Oliver Postgate (writer and narrator) and Peter Firmin (modelmaker and animator).
As Smallfilms they made a number of classic British animated children's television programmes, including:
- Noggin the Nog
- Pogles' Wood
- The Clangers
- Bagpuss
- Ivor the Engine

The name "Smallfilms" is appropriate in a number of ways:
- The company was small;
- The company made short films;
- Its films were intended for small people, i. e., children.
