About Moxy Fox Studio
Moxy Fox Studio is an independent, Indigenous-owned animation, illustration and digital storytelling studio founded in 2017 by Wolastoqiyik filmmaker and multidisciplinary artist Tara Audibert. Based in New Brunswick, Canada, it brings traditional First Nations storytelling and art into contemporary animation, publishing and interactive media.
The studio’s work explores cultural identity, historical memory and language preservation. Its productions include independent animated shorts, feature films and children’s television, with particular attention to Wolastoqey stories and language revitalization. Alongside screen production, its capabilities extend to visual development, character and background design, literary illustration and interactive storytelling.
Animation and storytelling
A central production is Qaqsoss naka Wahuntuhsis, also known as Fox and the Tiny Demon. The supplied research identifies it as Canada’s first full-length animated feature created entirely in the endangered Wolastoqey language. The project connects the studio’s filmmaking practice with its commitment to making Indigenous language and cultural knowledge accessible through animated media.
For television, Moxy Fox Studio developed and produced Lil Glooscap and the Legends of Turtle Island for APTN and APTN lumi. Its short-film work includes I am the Warrior: A Residential School Story, which addresses intergenerational residential school trauma, and its debut animated short, The Importance of Dreaming.
Beyond the screen
The studio also works across book and comic illustration, graphic narratives and educational digital experiences. Its services encompass writing, illustration and inking, fine-art commissions, cultural consulting and language-focused content development. Interactive projects connect this visual storytelling practice with app and game design, extending its work beyond conventional film and television formats.
