Look Mom! Productions is an animation production company and subsidiary of Blue and Media specializing in original series and feature development as well as production services.
Our Toronto-based, full-service studio was born out of a desire to shepherd our own projects through the production process in an effort to maintain creative integrity. Look Mom! boasts a distinct and vast talent network, having worked with more than 500 independent artists, writers, and comedians over the course of the last several years. We just want to create stuff that would make our moms proud (and maybe some stuff that wouldn’t).
