ICE Animations

ICE Animations is a Karachi-based animation and visual effects studio founded in 2008. Its work spans CGI character animation, episodic television, live-action visual effects, advertising and game art. Established within the Lakson Group, the studio became an operating subsidiary and specialized business unit of Sybrid in 2022, extending its activities into real-time 3D production and digital content.

The studio provides production services from early visual development through final delivery. Its 3D capabilities include character modeling, rigging, texturing, lighting and rendering, while its 2D work encompasses digital animation, motion graphics, corporate explainers and whiteboard animation. Pre-production support includes concept art, storyboarding and script assistance. Editing, audio synchronization and color grading complement its animation services.

Animation, effects and game production

For live-action projects, ICE Animations creates digital environments, set extensions and matte paintings, integrates computer-generated elements with filmed footage, and handles green-screen compositing and image cleanup. Its game art services cover characters, environments, props and other 3D assets, including integration with Unreal Engine. Architectural and product visualization form another part of its commercial offering.

Its screen work includes animation production for Mansour, an Emirati television series produced for Mubadala Development Company and Cartoon Network Studios Arabia, and multiple seasons of Suntop Island. The studio's feature-film VFX portfolio includes Big Ass Spider!, WAAR, Assault on Wall Street and Day of Reckoning, alongside other international genre productions.

Advertising and broadcast work includes animated commercials for consumer brands and introduction titles and broadcast packages for Pakistan Super League seasons V, VI and VII. These projects bring together character animation, motion graphics and effects for commercial and television formats.

Karachi remains the central production base, bringing together animation production, rendering and creative management. The company also maintains a US presence supporting client relationships, business development and commercial contracting, alongside access to the wider Sybrid international network.
