Mainframe Entertainment
| The name or term "Mainframe" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Mainframe (disambiguation). |
Mainframe Entertainment is a Canadian based animation studio, founded in 1993, which specializes in computer generated animation.
Their first huge success was with their award-winning premiere series Reboot. They were chosen by Hasbro to be the company to produce their big gamble; the Beast Wars televison series. This gamble went on to win an Emmy and became possibly Mainframe's most successful project. This led to more work, not only with the follow-up Beast Machines, but on the War Planets show/commercial and the CGI Spider-Man series for MTV.
Upon firing much of their writing and animation staff, MainFrame began a slow descent in terms of critical acclaim and financial consistency, distracting themselves with direct-to-video <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbie" class="extiw" title="wikipedia:Barbie">Barbie</a> movies, and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scary_Godmother" class="extiw" title="wikipedia:Scary_Godmother">Scary Godmother</a>. The company was purchased by Rainmaker Entertainment in 2006, and renamed as Rainmaker Animation.
