LEGENDS ANIMATED

Legends Animated is a 501(c)3 worker self-directed nonprofit animation company that promotes the awareness and appreciation of animation as a medium for all forms of storytelling. It does so by providing collaborative opportunities to create independent animation that is both engaging and impactful.

Legends Animated was established in 2013 as a volunteer-run organization that aimed to create independent animation that was inspired by the guerilla method of filmmaking. It currently operates as a democratically managed social enterprise that offers services such as (a) fiscal sponsorships of independent productions from members within the animation community, (b) partnerships with other 501c3 orgs and public institutions for animated co-productions, as well as (c) capacity support to animation organizations and events that center independent animation.
