2008 - 2024 Troublemakers
Founded in 2008, Troublemakers is an animation studio based in the heart of Paris. We craft images and words. We build projects in our workshop from the ground up with a specific focus on storytelling and sincerity. We like to sculpt and give rise to singular projects. Stories that speak to everyone. Stories that create honest and truthful films. Our producers and directors are first and foremost united by a common desire to challenge assumptions.
In recent years we have produced numerous award winning 2D and 3D animated campaigns for clients such as Van Cleef & Arpels, Orange, WWF, CCTV and Amnesty International. This experience has encouraged us to develop longer formats. We are currently in development on several animated series.
