About Studio Mir Co., Ltd.
Studio Mir is a South Korean animation production company founded in 2010 and headquartered in Seoul. Its work combines traditional and digital 2D animation with character acting, action choreography and hybrid 2D/3D imagery. The studio produces animated series and features for international streaming platforms, television networks and entertainment companies, including adaptations of games, comics and webtoons.
Its production offering extends from early development through finished animation. Pre-production includes scriptwriting and adaptation, storyboarding, animatics, visual development, character design and environment design. Main production covers layout, key animation, clean-up, in-betweening, digital inking and painting, and backgrounds. Compositing, color grading, visual effects and 3D asset integration support the final image. This breadth allows the company to contribute to storytelling and visual planning as well as animation execution.
International production partnerships
An early collaboration with Nickelodeon and creators Bryan Konietzko and Michael Dante DiMartino led to The Legend of Korra, released between 2012 and 2014. Its expressive character animation and fluid action became defining elements of the studio's international work. A subsequent production arrangement with DreamWorks Animation included all 78 episodes of Voltron: Legendary Defender and the series Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts.
Studio Mir's later work spans fantasy, superhero stories, action and adult animation. Productions include The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf, DOTA: Dragon's Blood, Lookism, My Adventures with Superman and X-Men '97. Its more recent portfolio includes The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep, Devil May Cry and Bass X Machina.
The company has developed long-term production relationships with Netflix and worked with Warner Bros. Animation, Marvel Studios and Capcom. Across these collaborations, its portfolio connects Korean animation production with globally distributed entertainment franchises. Alongside its Seoul production base, Studio Mir maintains a North American liaison presence supporting relationships with US studios and streaming partners.
