Illuminated followed this success with T.R.A.N.S.I.T, which was nominated for a British Academy Award and the Cartoon d'Or.

This has won numerous awards including the Children’s Choice Award at the British Animation Awards, Best Television Special at the Annecy International Animation Festival, the International Student Jury Award at the Banff International Television Festival, Best Production of the Year at the Cartoons on the Bay Festival in Italy and 1st prize at the Cinemagic Festival in Belfast.

L'impresa Illuminated Film Company è il piccolo regno indiscusso di Iain HARVEY, un nome che è la conferma del fatto che nel cinema d'animazione il produttore è molto importante. Prima di fondare quest'impresa, Harvey già possedeva un rucciculum di tutto rispetto, venendo dal settore editoriale, con particolare attenzione ai libri infantili. Produsse un classico: The Snowman, di Diane JACKSON, (che fu candidato all'Oscar nel 1982) e Prince Cinders del 1983, oltre al famoso speciale per la televisione Father Christmas, del 1991. Harvey fu anche produttore esecutivo di Quando Soffia il Vento, di Jimmy MURAKAMI (1987), premiato ad Annecy e della serie Spider! (BBC, 1991).
Il sape adattare i libri infantili più belli potrebbe essere considerato come una costante nella carriera di Iain HARVEY. La prima produzione dell'Illuminated Film Company, The Very Hungry Caterpillar & Other Stories, è una serie di cinq ue episodi diretta da Andrew GOFF, che portò sul grande schermo la creatività narrativa a grafica dello scrittore americano Eric CARLE. Con T.R.A.N.S.I.T., di Peter KROON, un tributo ricercato all'art déco e al lussuoso turismo del passato, la casa produttrice affascinò il pubblico adulto e ottenne riconoscimenti a vari livelli in distinti festival. I temi infantili furono riproposti nel lungometraggio Christmas Carol di Charles DICKENS, nel cortometraggio War Game e nel suo seguito War Boy.
L'impresa di Iain HARVEY distribuisce film in tutto il mondo attraverso la Disney e la MGM. Nel 2003 ha prodotto la 'situation comedy' animata Village People, scritta da Oliver LANSLEY e diretta da Edward FOSTER. Attualmente HARVEY è il vicepresidente dell'european Association of animated Film (Cartoon).
