Breaking through the animated film industry dominated by likes of Disney and Dreamworks was apparently not a hard nut to crack for “The Nut Job”. It ranked number 3 when it raked in $27 million over the weekend making it the biggest opening for an animated film that wasn’t produced by a major studio.

2014-10-22 45 HOW THE SUCCESS OF TNJ HAS AFFECTED INDEPENDENT ANIMATION PRODUCERS ON A GLOBAL SCALE

ToonBox operates similar to a smaller version of Pixar and DreamWorks SKG in the United States, for whom blockbuster properties are created with budgets that easily surpass $100 million.

2014-10-22 46

The success of The Nut Job has revolutionized how animation will and can be done in the future. ToonBox has shown that even on an independent production budget, Hollywood quality content can be produced and can compete on the big screens with major animation studios.

2014-10-22 47

ToonBox has demonstrated that a visually stunning animation feature can be produced for as low as $42 million USD and can generate substantial profit and gain both international and domestic success.

2014-10-22 48 TOONBOX PUSHES BOUNDARIES OF 3DWhat’s DIGITAL ANIMATION our FORsecret FILM & TV?

ToonBox’s commitment to quality in design, character and story has been able to attract top talent from around the world including employees from Pixar, WETA, DreamWorks and Disney to name a few. ToonBox is unique in the sense that it focuses on CGI (Computer-Generated Imagery) Feature Film production and owns and controls the IP from start to finish, this is something the Canadian industry has not seen before.

The majority of CGI Feature Film companies in Canada are work-for-hire only and have little to no input in the style, design and feel of the production. ToonBox has positioned itself as an artist-friendly facility where the creator has the ability to explore their full potential. Each employee is an integral part of the production process every step of the way and the company allows them to take an entrepreneurial approach to their work .

2014-10-22 50 TOONBOX’S STRENGTHS

Another strength that sets ToonBox apart from it’s Canadian competitors, is its lack of dependence on Government funding and its commitment to developing and owning quality IPs that it can exploit on the global market on multiple platforms. The company looks to the world first for financing and content creation.

ToonBox is a global operating company. Unlike its direct competitors, ToonBox sources partners and financing outside the traditional Canadian models that rely on government funding from organizations such as Telefilm and the Ontario Media Development Corporation.

2014-10-22 51 TOONBOX’S STRENGTHS

ToonBox does use the tax-credit model as part of its financing and uses that model to attract outside global investors for its products. Although ToonBox certainly welcomes any funds derived from the Canadian government, it is not reliant on these funds and therefore the company has a distinct advantage over a majority of its competitors.

2014-10-22 52 TOONBOX’S PARTNERS

ToonBox’s infrastructure is set up for all three mediums – Film, Television and Digital Media/Interactive. Aside from its partnerships and relationships with key companies , ToonBox also has a strategic relationship with Hollywood based Gulfstream Pictures. This relationship gives ToonBox a first look deal with Warner Bros. Entertainment for their theatrical distribution, which gives ToonBox access to additional financing and marketing through the Warner infrastructure, all while maintaining a strong level of control over its intellectual properties.

2014-10-22 53 TOONBOX’S PARTNERS

ToonBox also has a strategic partnership with Korea based Redrover.

Redrover serves as a strategic co-production and key finance partner, allowing both ToonBox and Redrover to access the global market including ever-growing China/Asian market.
