Since its foundation in 2011, SERU Animation GmbH & Co KG has specialized in the production of animated cartoons and CGI animated feature films and TV series. With its headquarters and creative base in Ludwigsburg and an independent creative team and studio in Hanover, SERU is a producer and partner from script development to theatrical premiere or broadcast with high quality standards for artwork and design, as well as a strong sense of responsibility with regard to meeting milestones, deadlines and overall budgets. SERU, under the direction of managing director Sebastian Runschke, takes over the overall control of all work steps and areas within animated film productions, as well as the creative direction, planning and execution of the work for the predominantly European financed projects. The main focus is on the affectionate material and project development and the realization of the production. Through the work on challenging film projects, the continuous training of employees and investments in the location, SERU can now rely on a well-coordinated and highly qualified team of permanent and freelance employees and has found its place in the animation industry in recent years. The positive development encourages SERU as a producer to initiate its own projects and to attract external (co-)productions to the location. As a member and advisor of the Animation Media Cluster (AMCRS), Sebastian Runschke is, among other things, actively involved in the sustainable design and further development of the local industry and also continuously supports the growth at the location with the training of young talents – SERU is an IHK training company. Social and ecological sustainability aspects have a high priority at SERU. Young families are supported, social projects are promoted and attention is paid to a healthy work-life balance in everyday life. A permanent Green Consultant pays attention to ecologically sustainable actions.
