Building on a history of successful collaborations, the two independent Spanish animation powerhouses join forces in forming Monkeys & Dinos animation service studio. The decision reflects their shared vision and commitment to creating and delivering premium animated content and developing original IPs that will resonate with global audiences.
Monkeys & Dinos will capitalize on the Canary Islands’ highly competitive tax incentives on offer, the most notable being rebates of up to 50% on animation production. This financial incentive, combined with the region’s dynamic creatives and production infrastructure makes the Canary Islands a prime destination for high-quality animation production.
Carlos Tschuschke, Founder and CEO at Able & Baker commented:
We are thrilled and excited about this new venture. We have been actively exploring opportunities to establish our presence and start our activities in the Canary Islands and landing this agreement to join forces with Ánima is fantastic news for us.
Angel Molinero, CEO at Ánima Kitchent added:
Monkeys & Dinos is the culmination of many years of working with Able & Baker on a variety of animation projects. Now is the perfect time to collaborate bringing the best of each company to the table and offering the market a high-quality service coupled with the tax advantages of the Canary Islands.
Monkeys & Dinos is already gearing up for several ambitious and exciting projects set to begin production in 2025, and with a focus on innovation, creativity and global storytelling, the studio aims to position itself as a strategic player in the international animation landscape.
