CYBER GROUP STUDIOS CELEBRATES ITS 15-YEAR BIRTHDAY

To celebrate its 15-year birthday, Cyber Group Studios, producer and distributor of animated series and developer of global entertainment brands for children and families worldwide, is hosting its first Online Cyber Meetings & Screenings. In these delicate times, Cyber Group Studios stands by its most important values: dialogue and the quality of its relationship with their friends buyers, broadcasters and platforms.

In 2005, the company was founded by a handful of passionate young creative talents and former top-executives from The Walt Disney Company with a strong industry track-record; all sharing the same energy and ambition. Today, Cyber Group Studios is a 150-employee company, with its headquarters in Paris (France), two production studios in Paris and Roubaix (France), and offices in Los Angeles (USA). The company also holds strategic partnerships in China and in Russia. Recently, “Cyber Soyuz Junior”, the first French and Russian joint label of animated programs, was launched in collaboration with the historical Russian State animation studio Soyuzmultfilm.

Nowadays, the company has an average yearly pipe of six series in production and 12 in development, a dynamic diversity of animation technics from digital 2D to full CG and hybrid combinations, and a full HD catalog of 1200 half-hours/2400 episodes (including its own series and third-party content in distribution).

Constantly on the lookout for new technology enhancing and enriching storytelling and the entertainment experience, Cyber Group Studios is launching a real-time animation studio, and its first real-time animation series “Giganto Club” will be released by Q1 2021. This new technology will accelerate the production process and enable a mutualization of the linear series’ animated content across social media short content, videogames and digital games and the production of artwork for toys and other consumer products.

“Cyber Group Studios’ first fifteen years have been quite a ride! As a 15-year-old teenager, we have vivid dreams for our future. One is to be a global digital entertainment group combining strategic and operational excellence with the innovation culture and agility of start-ups. Another one is to continue strengthening our international partnerships to deepen our foothold in strategic markets. But the most important one is to be able to continue creating compelling entertainment for kids and families and keep working and discovering new talent around the world as we have been doing so far. This is what has been at the heart of the foundation of our company fifteen years ago and still motivates us all today,”  commented Pierre Sissmann, President and CEO of Cyber Group Studios.
