BES Animation is a wholly owned Australian company formed in 2007 by Executive Producer Bruce Kane and Creative Director Maurice Argiro with the express purpose of creating top level 2D animation and original stories for local and international audiences. Based in Melbourne, BES has grown from a two-man team to a 40-person operation spanning two studios. BES is proudly a creator-driven studio with the ability to originate content and realise projects through all stages of production. The philosophy of the company is simple ... create, nurture and develop great ideas for the world.... It's a lofty ideal but it's working. BES produced a feature length telemovie for Cartoon Network - EXCHANGE STUDENT ZERO - that screened to 25 million plus viewers and won the Australian Writer's Guild award for best script. On the strength of this, Cartoon Network commissioned a series of 13 x 22 minutes that hit the screens in 2015. BES's second feature length telemovie with Cartoon Network - MONSTER BEACH - debuted to 40 million viewers in the APAC region alone. It was the highest rating program in its timeslot on Australian Pay TV and in multiple regions across the Asia Pacific region. Monster Beach won the ASTRA award for Most Outstanding Children's Television Program and plays regularly in USA , Europe , Latin America and Asia Pacific Region. In 2016, BES Animation teamed up with Rubberhouse studios to produce GINGER SNAPS - an adult animated web series for Warner Brothers / ABC (America) / Blue Ribbon Content. The series was written and created by Sono Patel and voiced in the USA with all design, animation and post-production taking place at BES's studios in Australia.
