Together, we\u2019re building something that goes beyond business: a creative home where artists can dream bigger, push further and inspire the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMikros Animation and Rodeo FX have always shared a mutual respect and admiration. This marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for us,\u201d added Julien Meesters, newly appointed president of Mikros Animation. \u201cJoining the Rodeo FX family opens new doors for us to explore broader animation horizons and to continually reinvent ourselves. Over the years, we&#8217;ve built incredible stories alongside our partners. Now, we&#8217;re embracing new challenges and evolving landscapes to ensure Mikros Animation remains a leading home for filmmakers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAbove all, we want to preserve Mikros Animation\u2019s creative magic,\u201d said Jordan Soles, senior VP and partner at Rodeo FX. \u201cThat signature that made them into the renowned studio they are today.
