IceWorks Animation

IceWorks Animation is a Canadian animation studio based in Magog, Quebec, developing and producing television entertainment for children, young audiences and families. Founded by producer Sylvain Viau, the business began studio operations in 2015 following incorporation in 2014. Its work combines 2D digital animation, 3D elements and hybrid visual techniques, with an emphasis on original intellectual property and adaptations of literary properties.

The studio operates within the broader IceWorks Co. banner, whose creative activities encompass animated television through IceWorks Animation and family feature films through IceWorks Pictures. IceWorks Animation’s own slate centres on episodic storytelling intended for Canadian broadcasters and international distribution.

Animated storytelling

A principal production is Amos, chasseur de masques (Amos, Mask Hunter), an adaptation of Bryan Perro’s Amos Daragon fantasy books. The series comprises 13 episodes of 22 minutes and has been broadcast on ICI Radio-Canada Télé and TFO, with international distribution through CBC & Radio-Canada Distribution and BETA Film. Its combination of literary adaptation and broadcast production reflects the studio’s focus on developing established story worlds for animated audiences.

As of November 2026, the reported development slate includes Amos et le sanctuaire des braves, a planned 20-episode animated series in preproduction, and Walter & Tandoori III, a proposed 52-episode series in development and funding. These projects extend the studio’s involvement in fantasy adventure and children’s entertainment.

Production capabilities

Capabilities span concept art, visual development, character design, storyboarding, animatics and full-pipeline animation production. The studio also supports international co-production and financing, including administration of Quebec provincial and Canadian federal audiovisual tax credits. This combination connects creative development with the production and financing requirements of television projects intended to reach audiences across multiple markets.
