With a foundation that was built on traditional animation, we are fervent architects of motion that grabs you. Whether it’s through 2D animation or motion graphics - we know how to elevate content in today’s video-hungry ecosystem.
Oh, and did we mention - we also have a sister-company called Ultrakind that does stop-motion animation, too?

CHAD SUGG
PRINCIPAL DESIGNER • FOUNDER • DAD
Chad has been illustrating since he was about 4 (hand-drawn Ninja Turtles, of course), and professionally designing for the past 13 + years. While his background consists mostly of the music industry and screen printing, every bit of his human career has been underlined by design in some way. He’s the happy/proud/sleepy father of a 10 y/o, 8 y/o, 3 y/o, and 1/2 y/o, and is married to our Director of Operations. Chad loves Halloween & Christmas, and half of his life is a dizzying flurry of him trying to decide which is his absolute all-time favorite.
