The studio has primarily focused on doing animation service work for kids series such as
Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs (WildBrain and Sony Pictures Animation)

The Carny’s (52 x 11 minutes). This 2D-animated comedy series is about a kid who takes over running the family circus after his dad mysteriously disappears.
