Toon Boom Welcomes Crest Animation Studios into its Family

Montreal (March 3, 2010) – Emmy® Award-winning Toon Boom Animation Inc. today announced that Crest Animation Studios, a leading 3D animation studio in India, has joined the Toon Boom family. Crest is setting up the Toon Boom pipeline using the Harmony Solution to implement a parallel production line to its current business and expand its line of services.

Taking into account the economic slowdown, Crest has decided to invest in a technology that would enable them to produce quality animation more cost-effectively. This is very timely as the demand for content from local channels is strong, offering a great opportunity to studios like Crest to deliver entertaining television programming economically.

“Crest Animation Studios is a great addition to the family and we look forward to seeing the quality animation they will produce using Harmony”, shared Joan Vogelesang, President and Chief Executive Officer at Toon Boom.
