Sony Pictures Animation is a division of Sony Pictures Entertainment, founded in 2002, which produces computer-animated films.
Digital animation for their films is made by Sony Pictures Imageworks. Sony Pictures Animation was created due to the success of ImageWorks' short animated film The Chubbchubbs and Columbia Torch Lady's Travel Time Adventure.
Their first feature film Open Season and Sony Pictures, was released on September 29, 2006. They have also announced their next film, called Surf's Up. For the future of Sony Pictures Animation they have planned Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs and Hotel Transylvania.
