Cartoon Network Studios is an American animation studio based in Burbank, California. It is owned by Cartoon Network, a subsidiary of the Turner Broadcasting System division of Time Warner. It focuses on producing and developing original animated programs and shorts for Cartoon Network, but sometimes also for late-night programming block Adult Swim, and from 2018 for the first time on TBS.
The actual animation production for their productions is done overseas, mostly in South Korea at Digital eMation, Saerom Animation, Rough Draft Korea, and Sunmin Image Pictures (SMIP Co., LTD.), with pre-production and post-production being United States-based.
History
The studio began on October 21, 1994, at 7:00 a.m. as a name-only division of Hanna-Barbera Cartoons, Inc., which was then focused on producing Cartoon Cartoons for Cartoon Network: What a Cartoon!, Dexter's Laboratory, Johnny Bravo, and The Powerpuff Girls. In 1997, these series credited Cartoon Network Studios as Warner Bros. Animation's subsidiary Hanna-Barbera, as the latter was merged into the former by early 1998.
In 1999, Cartoon Network Studios acquired its own facility located at 300 N 3rd St in Burbank, California,[1] which was the location of a former Pacific Bell telephone exchange, and transferred their existing shows still in production at Hanna-Barbera to this place in 2000; all until its grand opening in the Summer of that year. Former DiC and Nickelodeon employees Brian A. Miller and Jennifer Pelphrey manage the company since it began production in 2000.
Ten days before the death of William Hanna (in March 2001), the Hanna-Barbera name was dropped as a production entity and the Hanna-Barbera studio was folded into Warner Bros. Animation by its chief Jean MacCurdy.[2] Cartoon Network Studios was then revived as a separate entity from Hanna-Barbera, growing out of the animation studio[2] and continued to steadily grow with productions such as The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy and Samurai Jack, or newer productions such as Adventure Time, Regular Show, and Uncle Grandpa. Some of Cartoon Network Studios' former programming now rerun on Cartoon Network's sister channel, Boomerang.
