— About
An independent
animation studio.
Founded in Chennai in 2014, Tero Studios is a senior team of directors, animators, designers and engineers building cinematic films and immersive experiences for global brands. We now run two studios — Adyar, Chennai and a satellite office in the USA — and are deliberately small enough that every brief is led by a principal.
— Value 01
Senior people, every brief
No juniors fronting client work, ever.
— Value 02
Treatment before pixels
Writing locks the story before a frame is animated.
— Value 03
On-time, every time
Twelve years and no missed launch deadlines.
