From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Xing Xing Digital (Chinese: 幸星动画) was a Chinese animation studio based in Beijing, which specialized in producing large scale 3D animation, 2D animation, visual effects, stereoscopic movies and games. It was founded in 2004, and was one of the companies that animated the British children's series Fireman Sam.[1][2]
In June 2012, Xing Xing Digital announced its intent to purchase Rainmaker Entertainment, with the company willing to pay off Rainmaker's $7 million debt.[3] The purchase was called off after Rainmaker and Xing Xing were unable to finalize the sale by September 14, 2012.[4]
In 2014, director John A. Davis announced that Xing Xing Digital and Pelagius Entertainment had been selected to co-produce his upcoming animated film Smart.[5]
Controversy
On July 26th, 2016, due to a small bit of controversy in the episode Troubled Waters, where Elvis trips over a piece of paper with Surah Mulk, Verses 13–26 from the Quran on it, HiT Entertainment and Mattel ended up cutting ties with them completely. WildBrain (former name DHX Media Inc.) was then brought in to take over the animation.
