Polygon Pictures Malaysia

Polygon Pictures Malaysia is a Malaysian 3DCG animation production studio based in Petaling Jaya, Selangor. It produces animation for international television series and feature films, working across Japanese-style cel-shaded anime and classical Western 3D animation. Its work combines character performance with the asset creation, lighting and compositing needed to deliver episodic and feature productions.

The company began in January 2013 as Silver Ant PPI, a joint venture between Japan’s Polygon Pictures Inc. and Malaysian animation company Silver Ant Sdn Bhd. In November 2022, Polygon Pictures acquired additional shares and the studio adopted its current name. The business continues as an international production facility within the Polygon Pictures group, maintaining an operational partnership with its Malaysian founding partner.

Production capabilities

The studio provides a full 3D production pipeline, from modeling and texturing through look development, rigging, animation, lighting, rendering and digital compositing. Its specialties include character and creature animation, with both keyframe and motion-based approaches represented in its services. This combination supports projects with different visual treatments, including cel-shaded animation and Western-style CG productions.

Alongside production for television and theatrical features, the studio offers animation outsourcing and international co-production services. Its reported markets also include video game cinematics and commercial content. Within the wider group, it contributes production work to international projects rather than operating solely as a domestic animation supplier.

Selected production work

Across its former and current names, the studio has contributed to productions including Transformers Prime: Beast Hunters, Transformers: Robots in Disguise, the Transformers: War for Cybertron trilogy and Star Wars: Resistance. Other reported work includes Lost in Oz: Extended Adventure, Stillwater, Mech Cadets, Pacific Rim: The Black and Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man.

Its portfolio also includes Japanese CG productions such as Knights of Sidonia, BLAME!, Drifting Dragons, Levius and the Kaina of the Great Snow Sea series and feature film.
