Blue Sky Studios
Blue Sky Studios, Inc. was an American visual effects and computer animation studio based in Greenwich, Connecticut. It was founded on February 22, 1987 by Chris Wedge, Michael Ferraro, Carl Ludwig, Alison Brown, David Brown, and Eugene Troubetzkoy after their employer, MAGI, one of the visual effects studios behind ''Tron'', shut down. Using its in-house rendering software, the studio created visual effects for commercials and films before dedicating itself to animated film production. It produced 13 feature films, the first being ''Ice Age'', released in 2002 by 20th Century Fox, and the final one being ''Spies in Disguise'', released in 2019.Blue Sky Studios was a subsidiary of 20th Century Animation until its acquisition by Disney, as part of their acquisition of 21st Century Fox assets in 2019. Blue Sky was shut down in April 2021 by Disney due to the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its business operations.
''Ice Age'' and ''Rio'' were the studio's most commercially successful franchises, while ''Robots'' (2005), ''Horton Hears a Who!'' (2008), ''The Peanuts Movie'' (2015), and the aforementioned ''Spies in Disguise'' were among its most critically praised films. Scrat, a character from the ''Ice Age'' franchise, was the studio's mascot. Provided by Wikipedia
