SUPAMONKS

SUPAMONKS was a French animation and audiovisual production studio working across television, feature films, advertising and video games. Founded in 2007 by graduates of École Méliès, it developed from a creative boutique near Paris into a production company combining stylized 3D animation, 2D animation and visual development. Its production presence extended from the Paris metropolitan region to Montpellier.

The studio offered a full animation pipeline, from concept and script development through storyboarding, layout, set dressing, animation, lighting, rendering and compositing to sound design. Alongside commissioned animation, it provided character design, environmental assets, game cinematics and trailers. Its video game work included developing visual identities and producing art and animation in collaboration with developers and publishers.

From commercials to series and games

Early work centered on animated commercials and cinematic game trailers, including a long-running relationship with Quick and projects for publishers such as Ubisoft and Amplitude Studios. Around 2016, SUPAMONKS expanded into serialized storytelling and family entertainment. Its television productions included Droners, co-produced with Cyber Group Studios, and the preschool adaptation Pompon Little Bear, produced for France Télévisions. Its children's portfolio also included Jobs, a comedy series about everyday careers, and Best Sports Ever!

Feature and special-format work included Girl in the Clouds, Minuscule 2: Les Mandibules du bout du monde and Rabbids Invasion: Mission to Mars. In games, SUPAMONKS contributed art direction, character design and 2D animation to Absolum, working with Dotemu and Guard Crush Games. These projects reflected a practice spanning original storytelling, commissioned production and collaborative development.

Final operating period

The studio entered judicial liquidation following a court judgment on June 24, 2026, and ceased active operations. Its physical studios closed, while the dedicated Absolum art and animation team continued work through partner organizations outside the liquidated company. That continuation concerned the team's ongoing projects rather than continued operation of SUPAMONKS itself.
