Unwavering talent of Filipinos in Computer Animation

The list of skills you can outsource now seem endless. Today, routine and ho-hum business processes are not the only things outsourced; you can now throw imagination and artistry in.

In the Philippines, animation is a bustling sub sector of outsourcing. It is one among the five sub sectors that is heavily promoted by the Philippine government, the others being call centers, software development, medical transcription and BPO. During the 1990's according to the Asian Wall Street Journal, the Philippines was already known as a “vital cog” in the world's animation industry. Philippine animation studios have been subcontracted in many lucrative animation projects in the past for the likes of Hanna-Barbera, Marvel, Warner Brothers, Cartoon Network, DreamWorks and even Walt Disney.

It is also a given fact that Filipino animators had a hand in many animation hit such as Hoodwinked, Finding Nemo, Adams Family, Buzz Lightyear, Timon and Pumbaa, Johnny Bravo, X-Men and so much more.
