Intelligent Animation The idea for a new AI animation studio came to Mark Stern through podcasts.
Stern, the former head of original content for Syfy, was trying to figure out a way three years ago to visually augment the podcasts native to his studio Echoverse when he and his business partner, former ABC and WME chairman Lloyd Braun, landed on a solution: Intelligent Animation, a studio that fuses traditional animation with machine-learning AI tools in a bid to produce cheaper and faster shows. The company, which is led by Stern as president, currently has six projects in active development, with two — “The Dragon Prince’s Bride,” based on a novel by C.J. Young, and “The Prince’s Personal Physician,” both of which were licensed from the webcomics platform Tapas — arriving on Braun’s microseries platform aTwist later this year.
