Picapau Filmes

Picapau Filmes is a Brazilian animation studio headquartered in Guarulhos, São Paulo. It is a full-fledged animation studio using digital techniques for its productions, including the usage of Flash/Toon Boom for theatrical productions since 2006.

In addition to its main studio, Picapau Filmes acquired Estúdios Pintura and renamed it as a satellite studio in the main city of São Paulo. They also operate another studio for subcontracting animation work in Lisbon, Portugal. It is also currently a subsidiary of Grupo Kirschner following an acquisition in 2005.

While some Brazilian animation studios opt for emulating American cartoons, Picapau instead takes influence from anime both in terms of art style and storytelling, albeit with a more local cultural flair still accessible to viewers in other countries.
