Go Lucky

Go Lucky is a Toronto-based boutique creative agency and animation production collective founded and led by Canadian producer, writer and director Mike Valiquette. Its work spans original entertainment development, commercial animation and independent filmmaking, with a particular focus on 2D and traditional animation.

The studio combines a small core operation with an international network of independent animators, illustrators, designers and directors. This collective model supports collaborations across children's media, branded content, video games and creator-led film projects. Its production work includes animated toy demonstrations for global children's brands, cinematics for independent game developers and micro-budget animated features developed with Indigenous filmmakers.

Development and production

Go Lucky's capabilities extend from early story and concept development through animation production. Services include scriptwriting, storyboarding, character design, visual development and creative direction, alongside production consulting and executive producing. Its work encompasses both commissioned projects and original content, including support for independent animated shorts and features.

Valiquette focused full-time on Go Lucky in 2019 after earlier development and directing roles in Canadian animation. The studio brings that production background to a flexible, creator-led operating model, working with independent filmmakers and specialist artists across projects of different formats and scales.
