About Studio La Cachette
Studio La Cachette is an independent French animation production company established in 2014 and based in the Paris metropolitan area. Its work centres on hand-drawn 2D animation, combining traditional animation techniques with digital production pipelines. The studio produces animation for television, streaming series, feature films, commercials and video game cinematics, with particular strengths in action choreography, character performance and cinematic storytelling.
Its production capabilities span visual development, concept art, character and background design, layout, storyboarding, animatics and finished animation. Alongside commissioned animation, it undertakes executive production and co-production, supporting both established entertainment properties and original projects. Its portfolio includes adult animation, fantasy, dramatic storytelling and stylised action across a range of visual approaches.
Television and streaming
A sustained collaboration with Genndy Tartakovsky and Cartoon Network Studios / Adult Swim includes lead 2D animation production for the first three seasons of Genndy Tartakovsky's Primal and for Unicorn: Warriors Eternal. The dialogue-free prehistoric storytelling of Primal places particular emphasis on movement, staging and expressive character animation.
The studio also produced animation for “Sucker of Souls” in the first volume of Netflix’s Love, Death & Robots and “The Spy Dancer” in the second volume of Lucasfilm’s Star Wars: Visions. Additional work includes animated sequences for Netflix’s Devil May Cry and the opening sequence for Jentry Chau vs. The Underworld.
Original productions and other formats
Studio La Cachette has expanded its original and co-produced work through Le Collège Noir, adapted from Ulysse Malassagne’s work, and the animated feature Mu Yi and the Handsome General, directed by Julien Chheng. These productions extend its activity beyond animation services into developing and producing narrative projects.
Its work for games includes the animated reveal trailer for Evil Empire and Ubisoft’s The Rogue Prince of Persia. Across these formats, the studio combines full animation production with project-specific contributions such as opening titles, trailers and individual animated sequences.
