History
Prana Studios was founded in April 2005 by Arish Fyzee, Kristin Dornig and Pankaj Gunsagar.[2] In 2005, Prana opened its Mumbai office.[3]
In 2008, The Weinstein Company launched a series of direct-to-video CGI feature-length films called Unstable Fables - they were produced amongst others, by The Jim Henson Company and Prana Studios.[2] The first released was 3 Pigs and a Baby, the second released was Tortoise vs. Hare and third and final released was The Goldilocks and the 3 Bears Show.
Prana produced stories and CGI imagery for US domestic, international and Indian domestic Bollywood markets, including Kuch Kuch Hota Hai for Dharma Productions,[4] as well as the French animated film Why I Did (Not) Eat My Father.
On March 29, 2013, Prana Studios affiliate 34x118 Holdings, LLC won the bidding of Rhythm and Hues Studios in a bankruptcy auction against other visual effects/CGI animation studios, Prime Focus and Brave Vision. Another contender, Psyop, was eliminated early in the process.[5] The sale was "valued at about $30 million."[6]
Post 2013, Rhythm&Hues and their VFX Supervisors were multiple Emmy and Visual Effects Society Award nominees and winners for their work on Game of Thrones.[7] Prana Studios, Inc. is the recipient of multiple Themed Entertainment nominations and Awards, including for the attraction "5D Castle Theatre" at the prestigious Chimelong Ocean Kingdom in Zuhai, China.[8]
