About Mighty Animation
Mighty Animation is an independent Mexican animation studio founded in April 2012 in Guadalajara, Jalisco. It produces 2D and 3D/CGI animation for television, streaming, feature films, animated shorts and advertising. Its work combines visual storytelling, digital production and post-production, with projects spanning commissioned animation, original intellectual property and international co-productions.
The studio offers production services from initial concept through final delivery. Pre-production capabilities include scriptwriting, concept development, visual development, art bibles, character and background design, storyboards and animatics. Production work covers asset modeling and texturing, character rigging, animation, clean-up and inbetweens. Its finishing services include compositing, lighting, rendering, color correction and editorial assembly. These capabilities support both individual production assignments and projects requiring a complete animation pipeline.
Production work
Mighty's portfolio includes contributions to Lucasfilm and Disney's Star Wars Galaxy of Creatures and Star Wars Galactic Pals, as well as character and episodic animation for season five of Adult Swim's Rick and Morty. Its feature work includes America: The Motion Picture and background art and animation for The Casagrandes Movie. Other reported credits include FriendsZSpace, Cleopatra in Space, Sadie Sparks, Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur and the opening sequence for The Simpsons episode “Treehouse of Horror XXXV.” These credits represent contributions across productions rather than a claim that Mighty originated or produced every title in full.
Alongside service production, Mighty develops original properties and collaborates with other producers and broadcasters. Its projects include Viking Tales, also known as Vikingos, the Canal 22 co-production Conejo en la Luna, and Pictoline: La Vida Secreta de tu Mente. This combination of commissioned work and original development connects the studio's production capabilities with its interest in creating Latin American animation for international audiences.
The company coordinates its work from Guadalajara while drawing on an international network of specialized artists and production collaborators.
