From there he headed to the South of England where he studied Animation Production at the Arts University Bournemouth (AUB) from which he graduated (2015) with a BA (hons).

 

Following graduation Pétur moved back to Iceland at the age of 21 and founded the commercial animation studio Motive Productions, which he ran and directed for two years.
