Animatus Studio has been operating in Rochester, NY since 1989. We specialize in traditional animation for film and video, but also handle web animation, 3D and 2D graphics, and video editing. Although schooled in film techniques, most of our recent work has been in video and the digital arena. To this end, we use programs like Photoshop, After Effects, 3D Studio Max, Lightwave, Toonboom, and Adobe Flash. All post-production is done in house on our nonlinear edit systems.

Major clients include Eastman Kodak, Xerox, Mobil, Crystal Pix, and Corning.

In addition to our work in animation, Animatus produced the documentary The End of the Line – Rochester’s Subway and later authored the special edition DVD. Animatus provided editing, post-production, and graphics for two Rochester sports documentaries: When Football Was Bigger Than Life – An All-American Story and Irondequoit: Lacrosse Town U.S.A.

Animatus Studio is also home to The Animation Workshop where the knowledge and joy of animation is taught to students of all ages.
