On the best lead I felt I got today after speaking to someone on the phone I comprised this email. Over the phone we exchanged names and chk design studios in London said they may have a place for me even though they don't usually have people coming in for such a short time, which seems to be the case for almost every studio I've contacted.
I thought in order to stand out I should incorporate some humour, I did so through my name (Ali G) as well as including a character from one of my animations, Little Bacteria Man who asks them "So what do you say?"
I've currently contacted (calls and email) 14 different design studios.
