About Chase a cloud

Chase a cloud is an independent animation, pre-production and transmedia studio based in Sofia, Bulgaria, with a branch in Berlin. Founded in 2008, it develops stories and visual worlds for entertainment, games, brands and educational media. Its work spans hand-drawn 2D animation, stylized 3D production, motion comics, game cinematics and original intellectual property.

The business began as a commercial video and digital agency supporting technology startups and providing visual effects for feature films. A partnership with animation director Sava Komitski in 2017 helped transform it into a full-service animation studio focused on creative authorship across development and production. Its approach brings writing, design and animation together from the early stages of a project.

From development to finished animation

The studio's capabilities cover scriptwriting, pitch development, character and environment design, storyboarding, animatics and visual development, alongside animation and compositing. For games, it produces trailers, teasers, cutscenes and in-game cinematics, as well as concept art, characters and assets. Its animation offering includes traditional frame-by-frame work, rigged 2D animation, CGI and commercial motion design.

Its portfolio includes the animated revival of Mattel and Fisher-Price's Rescue Heroes, cinematics for Creative Assembly and SEGA's Total War: Warhammer III, and the DC x Sonic the Hedgehog: Chaos Crisis motion comic series. Other productions include LEGO Marvel Avengers: Age of Ultron Holiday Special, Marko: Beyond Brave, The Food Detectives and Nat Geo Explorer’s Academy. The studio also collaborated on the animated feature The Paper Bear.

Original worlds across formats

Alongside commissioned production, Chase a cloud develops original transmedia projects. Khalo, the Zmeyborn, based on author Milen Halyov's Balkan-folklore fantasy universe, extends across an animated feature project, board games, comics and video game adaptations. This work reflects the studio's interest in developing connected storytelling worlds that can take different forms across publishing, interactive entertainment and screen production.
