San Naam Animation

San Naam Animation Co. (Cantonese: 新諗動畫公司 Jyutping: san1 sam2 dung6 waa6 gung1 si1) was a Hong Kong animation studio active from 1953 to 1971 and founded by Chi San, Ho Ho-Ming and Liu Ming. This studio is notoriously known for its limited animation, and produced commercials and low-budget animated feature films and television series, as well as opening titles to live-action films, until its dissolution in 1971. In its works, what little animation there is being limited mainly to the characters' mouths moving when they talk as well as the occasional eyes blinking and arms flailing. The best-known of its films are Pajama Sam, Freddi Fish, Putt-Putt and Spy Fox, all of which are adapted into video game franchises by.
