Brazil: Export-Proven Kids’ Content Meets Award-Winning Commercial Work
Brazil’s animation industry spans two distinct strengths beyond Copa Studio’s broadcaster partnership model. PinGuim Content, founded in 1989 by Kiko Mistrorigo and Célia Catunda, has built one of the country’s most internationally distributed kids’ content libraries — “Fishtronaut,” “Earth to Luna!” and “Tarsilinha” now reach more than 120 countries, supported by the company’s own US office for co-productions and sales. Birdo Studio, founded in 2005, has similarly scaled its broadcast footprint to roughly 196 territories. On the commercial side, Zombie Studio has built an internationally recognized advertising-animation practice, winning more than 600 festival awards including over 30 Cannes Lions, and was named Production Company of the Year at both the ADC New York and New York Festivals in 2025.

How to Choose a Brazilian Animation Partner
PinGuim’s and Birdo’s export track records make them strong choices for kids’ content requiring proven international distribution reach, while Zombie Studio’s advertising-industry pedigree suits commercial and brand-driven animation work rather than long-form series. Confirm whether a project qualifies for Lei do Audiovisual financing early, since the incentive requires ANCINE approval as an audiovisual project before tax-deductible investment can be structured.
Conclusion
Animation companies in Brazil have proven both export durability in kids’ content and award-winning creative depth in commercial animation, backed by a strengthened federal incentive extending through 2029. For international buyers, Brazil offers a genuinely dual-track value proposition.
