Cube Creative

Cube Creative is a French animation studio working across CGI and 2D production, visual effects, television series, advertising and immersive attraction films. Founded in 2002, it developed its early business through animated commercials, music videos and large-format films for dynamic simulators. Its commercial work has included campaigns for Cartier, LU, Total and Kellogg's, while its attraction work includes productions for Futuroscope.

The studio's production capabilities span original concept development through finished animation. Its work encompasses concept art, storyboarding, visual development, modeling, texturing, rigging, character animation and compositing. Alongside stylized character animation for children and families, Cube Creative has produced photorealistic animal animation and content designed for large-format 3D and 4D experiences. This combination connects its television production with its earlier commercial and attraction-film work.

Original series and production

The establishment of Cube Creative Productions in 2009 supported a growing focus on original intellectual property and audiovisual co-production. Its television work includes Kaeloo, a CGI slapstick comedy, and Athleticus, a dialogue-free series featuring photorealistic animals competing in sporting events. Other productions include Where's Chicky?, the preschool series Tangranimals and the adventure comedy Pfffirates.

These projects have served broadcasters and distribution partners including Canal+, Arte, France Télévisions and TF1. The studio's broader markets encompass television, streaming platforms, commercial advertising, theme parks and scientific centers.

Development within the Xilam group

Xilam Animation acquired a majority stake in Cube Creative in January 2020, expanding the group's CGI production capabilities. Cube Creative subsequently collaborated with Xilam on further series production and centralized its operations in Paris following its earlier base in Levallois-Perret. Its history combines commissioned animation and attraction production with the development of original series, supported by complementary technical and production entities.
