It is now thirty years since Animal Logic was born from the remains of Video Paint Brush by Zareh Nalbandian and Chris Gregory. In 1991, the decision to create a high-end VFX company to work on television productions and commercials must have felt like a leap into the deep ocean with lead boots and an untested oxygen supply.
By 1995, we knew the company could be great as it did the animation for Babe, and then Babe: Pig in the City. It worked on The Matrix, Farscape, Moulin Rouge!, Planet of the Apes, The Lord of the Rings, Hero, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. It was an international service company.
