Studio 6

Studio 6 was the internal creative production, animation and digital content division of Havas Worldwide. Established circa 2014, it brought video production, motion graphics, editorial and post-production into the agency’s content offering. Its work extended across commercial advertising, healthcare communications, technology, financial services and consumer brands.

The studio combined live-action editorial with 2D and 3D animation, character work, typography, visual effects, broadcast finishing and sound. Its capabilities also included color correction, audio mixing and interactive digital experiences. This range supported both short advertising formats and longer explanatory content, with animation used to communicate products, technologies and complex scientific subjects.

Commercial and healthcare production

Studio 6 contributed to campaigns and branded films through Havas agency teams. Its portfolio included animated advertising, technical explainers and corporate storytelling, bringing design, animation and post-production together within an agency production setting. The studio’s healthcare work encompassed pharmaceutical communications, scientific visualization and Mechanism of Action animation.

The wider production model expanded into health communications in August 2017 with the launch of Studio 6 Life under Havas Lynx. That separately branded healthcare unit focused on motion, animation and finishing for specialized campaigns and technical explanations.

Development within Havas

Studio 6 developed within the Havas Village model, with production teams in New York, Chicago and Boston. Its role was to connect creative development with the practical production of campaign content across multiple media and formats.

The Studio 6 identity subsequently became part of a broader consolidation of Havas production operations. Its capabilities and personnel were folded into Havas Studios in May 2021. In June 2023, Havas brought Havas Studios, General POP and creative teams from Havas Health & You together under Prose on Pixels. Studio 6 therefore represents a historical in-house production identity within that evolving network, rather than an independently incorporated animation company.
