Cyber Group Opens New Animation Studio

Paris-based producer/distributor Cyber Group Studios has launched a brand-new animation studio in Roubaix, France.

The 4,305-square-foot facility follows the opening of a Cyber Group subsidiary in Los Angeles early last year. The company plans to expand from 15 creative and production staff members in Hauts-de-France to around 50 by 2020. Currently, the series Tom Sawyer and Taffy are being produced out of the new Roubaix studio.

“We are currently seeking the talent we need and our main goal is to hire in the Hauts-de-France region,” said Pierre Sissmann, the president of Cyber Group Studios. “There is a real desire from the Hauts-de-France region to support the audiovisual industry and to promote the know-how of its population in this sector.”
