AN ANIMATED EVENING WITH STUDIO B
Special Presentation

(2010, 90 mins)

The City of Vancouver Archives celebrates Studio B! This special event will
chronicle the legacy of a local animation studio that has become a leader in kids’
entertainment. Studio B’s popular animated series include Kid vs Kat, Martha
Speaks, George of the Jungle and Class of the Titans, among many more.

This evening will relate the studio’s rapid development from a two-man operation
into its current status as a world-renowned production house composed of more
than 200 artists and staff.

Since 2006, Studio B has been donating its records from 12 original productions
and many examples of its service and other work to the City Archives, preserving
these records for generations to come.
