sorry to China, IL (which is a great show) but the intro section should be an overview of their most notable projects; of which The Venture Bros. definitely is. I would suggest only using Motorcity if it is their most notable Disney project. An analogy would be a wiki for an actor--- you would list their most notable/ roles they are best known for.

Titmouse, Inc. is an American animation studio that develops and produces animated television programming, feature films, music videos, title sequences, commercials and short films. The studio opened in 2000, and has offices in Los Angeles, New York City and Vancouver. Some of their productions include Motorcity for Disney XD, Metalocalypse, The Venture Bros., Superjail! and Black Dynamite for Adult Swim.[3]

History

Owner Chris Prynoski began working at MTV in New York on shows such as Daria, Beavis and Butthead, and his own creation, MTV Downtown, which was nominated for a primetime Emmy Award.[4] In the early 2000s, Prynoski opened a small T-shirt company with his wife, Shannon Prynoski. However, upon getting more requests for cartoons than for T-shirts, they decided to abandon screen-printing in favor of animation. The Prynoski's moved to California and opened the revamped Titmouse, Inc., an animation studio. They hired French art director, Antonio Canobbio.[citation needed] Titmouse opened a games division in 2009.[5]

Due to projects like Cartoon Network’s Metalocalypse, Superjail! and The Venture Bros. the company expanded and opened a sister studio in New York City in 2010. The California studio later added a wholly owned subsidiary, Robin Redbreast, which was then unionized in order to produce MotorCity for Disney XD.

The company has a YouTube channel, Rug Burn, launched in December 2012 with Six Point Harness. Rug Burn was launched with a handful of shows.[6]

In April 2016, Titmouse released its first feature-length film, titled Nerdland. The film is R-rated, and stars Paul Rudd and Patton Oswalt.[7]
