About Studio Campedelli
Studio Campedelli is an Italian animation production studio developing, financing and producing animated content for television, cinema and digital platforms. Founded in Milan in 2008 by Pietro Campedelli, it works across children’s and family entertainment, combining original development with international co-productions.
The studio’s production capabilities centre on digital cut-out and traditional hand-drawn 2D animation. Its pipeline spans concept development, story editing, scriptwriting, graphic research, character and prop design, background styling and model packs. Storyboards and videoboards support pre-production, followed by rigging, animation, compositing and offline and online editing. These capabilities allow the company to contribute across development, visual preparation, production and finishing.
Productions and collaborations
Its portfolio includes both 2D productions and CGI co-productions. The revival of Calimero brought the studio together with Gaumont Animation, TV Tokyo, Kodansha and RAI. Tip the Mouse, also known as Topo Tip, was co-produced with m4e AG, Studio Bozzetto, Giunti Editore and RAI. Other productions include the cut-out series Atchoo!, made with Cartobaleno, Rai Ragazzi and Digitoonz; OPS – Orrendi per Sempre, with Movimenti Production and RAI; and Super Benny, featuring Italian culinary personality Benedetta Rossi.
The company’s international slate includes Belfort & Lupin, originally developed as Versailles Unleashed, and the preschool series Trotro & Zaza. Its feature work includes Prendiluna, an adaptation of Stefano Benni’s novel co-produced with Ellipse Animation. Additional development projects include Martin Got a Box, with Cartobaleno, and the animated feature Caruso, with CDV and Christian DeVita.
Group context
Ellipse Animation acquired a majority stake in January 2024, bringing Studio Campedelli into the Média-Participations group. The company continues to operate as an Italian production studio, connecting its development and animation capabilities with international television and feature projects. Its creative production activity is based in Milan, with administration and finance supported from Turin.
