We are a small but full service
animation company near Columbus, Ohio, which is home to a surprisingly large community of animation industry pros as well as the Ohio State University and the Columbus College of Art & Design.
For bigger projects we are able to call on incredibly talented freelancers from this large pool, as well as from a larger group of freelance contacts outside Columbus.
We use ToonBoom's Digital Pro software, as well as Adobe and Apple, and collaborate with clients all over the world, delivering on time and on budget. Experience in all areas of production translate into a smooth process and award-winning results.
| Andy Friz |
The main human of "The Little Black Cat", an award winning artist with experience from feature films to TV and commercials, illustration, web and graphic design.
Andy started out in traditional cel animation at Perennial Pictures in Indianapolis, IN as a background painter, then moved into layout, art direction, storyboards and animation. We used actual cels, painting them by hand and shooting on real film!
As Adjunct Faculty at the Columbus College of Art & Design, he teaches Advanced Animation, traditional and digital, ToonBoom, Adobe and Apple software.
He does the drawing, the painting, the phones, the billing, and opening cans of tuna. Not as photogenic as the rest of the staff...
