Incubator - Virtual Studio - Learning Hub - Mentorship - Network
Imhapie is a virtual studio dedicated to bridging the gap between students and successful careers in the animation industry. Through our volunteer-based productions, students and others wishing to transition into the industry can get hands-on experience in a professional animation pipeline.
Our community provides access to networking opportunities, a resource database, professional feedback and opportunities to pitch new shows! In addition, all advanced community members who have served on one of our projects are offered work through our professional services.
The dream for Imhapie was realized in 2014 when founder, Paige Powell-Revis was transitioning from live action filmmaking to animation production and CG arts. With most entry level positions asking for 2 years of experience, she realized the need for a space for creatives to learn together, perfect their portfolios and gain experience in a professional pipeline.
In 2020 Imhapie LLC was founded with the intention of serving the animation community while creating original, family-friendly content. Since its humble beginnings, Imhapie has grown to collaborate with over 100 creatives all over the world.
With headquarters located in Fresno, California we are presented with the unique opportunity to network with animation professionals from studios like Pixar, Disney, Dreamworks, Nickelodeon, and more that are a short drive away. We are dedicated to bringing industry knowledge to our local community and expanding the lively entertainment scene in the greater Central Valley.
