'''Blue Sky Studios, Inc.''' was an American [[visual effects]] and [[computer animation]] studio based in [[Greenwich, Connecticut]]. It was founded on February 22, 1987, by [[Chris Wedge]], Michael Ferraro, Carl Ludwig, Alison Brown, David Brown, and Eugene Troubetzkoy after their employer, [[Mathematical Applications Group|MAGI]], one of the visual effects studios behind ''[[Tron]]'', shut down. Using its in-house rendering software, the studio created visual effects for commercials and films before dedicating itself to animated film production. It produced [[List of Blue Sky Studios productions|13 feature films]], the first being ''[[Ice Age (2002 film)|Ice Age]]'', released in 2002 by [[20th Century Fox]], and the final one being ''[[Spies in Disguise]]'', released in 2019.<ref>{{Cite web|title='Spies in Disguise' Crew Gives Us An Exclusive Tour of Blue Sky Studios|url=https://theknockturnal.com/spies-in-disguise-blue-sky-studios/|access-date=2020-10-08|website=The Knockturnal|date=March 11, 2020|archive-date=February 9, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210209175512/https://theknockturnal.com/spies-in-disguise-blue-sky-studios/|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=2020-08-14|title=Spies In Disguise Coming Soon To Disney+ In The UK|work=What's On Disney Plus|url=https://whatsondisneyplus.com/spies-in-disguise-coming-soon-to-disney-in-the-uk/|access-date=2020-10-08|archive-date=February 9, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210209175439/https://whatsondisneyplus.com/spies-in-disguise-coming-soon-to-disney-in-the-uk/|url-status=live}}</ref>

Blue Sky Studios was a subsidiary of [[20th Century Animation]] until its acquisition by [[The Walt Disney Company|Disney]], as part of their [[acquisition of 21st Century Fox by Disney|acquisition]] of [[21st Century Fox]] assets in 2019.

=== 1989–2002: Television commercials, visual effects and ''Bunny'' ===

Throughout the late 1980s and 1990s, Blue Sky Studios concentrated on the production of television commercials and visual effects for film. The studio began by animating commercials that depicted the mechanisms of time-release [[Capsule (pharmacy)|capsules]] for [[Pharmaceutical industry|pharmaceutical corporations.]] The studio also produced a [[Chock Full O' Nuts]] commercial with a talking coffee bean and developed the first computer-animated [[M&M's]].<ref name="ArtOfBlueSky" />{{Rp|14}} Using CGI Studio, the studio produced over 200 other commercials for clients such as [[Chrysler]], [[General Foods]], [[Texaco]], [[Pepsi]], and the [[United States Marine Corps|United States Marines]].<ref name="raytracers">{{cite web | last=Ohmer | first=Susan | url=https://www.awn.com/animationworld/ray-tracers-blue-sky-studios | title=Ray Tracers: Blue Sky Studios | publisher=[[Animation World Network]] | date=May 1, 1997 | access-date=April 11, 2022| archive-date=February 9, 2021 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210209175436/https://www.awn.com/animationworld/ray-tracers-blue-sky-studios | url-status=live }}</ref> They made a cartoon bumper for [[Nicktoons]] that features an orange blob making a dolphin, a dinosaur, and a walking person.<ref>{{Citation|title=Nickelodeon Morphs Into NickRewind {{!}} NickRewind| date=November 7, 2015 |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=orhUuy_bxes|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200813115932/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=orhUuy_bxes|archive-date=August 13, 2020|access-date=2020-03-31|url-status=bot: unknown}}</ref>

In 1996, [[MTV]] collaborated with Blue Sky Studios on the film ''[[Joe's Apartment]]'', for which Blue Sky animated the insect characters. Other clients included [[Bell Atlantic]], [[Rayovac]], [[Gillette]] and [[Braun (company)|Braun]].<ref name="ArtOfBlueSky" />{{Rp|14}} The Braun commercial was awarded a [[Clio Awards|CLIO Award for Advertising]].<ref name="ArtOfBlueSky" />{{Rp|14}} Recalling the award, Carl Ludwig stated that the judges had initially mistaken the commercial as a live action submission as a result of the photorealism of the computer-animated razor.<ref name=":0" /><ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.businessinsider.com/the-ice-age-franchise-never-wouldve-happened-without-this-movie-2016-7|title=The 'Ice Age' franchise never would've happened without this movie|last=Mellor|first=Louisa|date=14 July 2016|website=Business Insider|publisher=Business Insider|access-date=27 December 2016|archive-date=February 9, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210209175517/https://www.businessinsider.com/the-ice-age-franchise-never-wouldve-happened-without-this-movie-2016-7|url-status=live}}</ref> In August 1997, [[20th Century Fox]]'s Los Angeles-based visual effects company, VIFX, acquired [[majority interest]] in Blue Sky Studios to form a new visual effects and animation company, temporarily renamed "Blue Sky/VIFX".<ref name=":1">{{cite news|url=https://variety.com/1997/film/news/imaginative-pix-takes-interest-in-blue-sky-1116678868/|title=Imaginative Pix takes interest in Blue Sky|date=August 27, 1997|newspaper=Variety|access-date=April 11, 2022|archive-date=February 9, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210209175443/https://variety.com/1997/film/news/imaginative-pix-takes-interest-in-blue-sky-1116678868/|url-status=live}}</ref> Following the studio's expansion, Blue Sky produced character animation for the films ''[[Alien Resurrection]]'' (1997), ''[[A Simple Wish]]'' (1997), ''[[Mouse Hunt]]'' (1997), ''[[Star Trek: Insurrection]]'' (1998) and ''[[Fight Club]]'' (1999).<ref name="ArtOfBlueSky" />{{Rp|15}}

Meanwhile, starting in 1990, Chris Wedge had been working on a short film named ''[[Bunny (1998 film)|Bunny]]'', intended to demonstrate CGI Studio. The film revolves around a rabbit widow who is irritated by a moth. The moth subsequently leads the rabbit into "a heavenly glow, reuniting her with her husband."<ref name="ArtOfBlueSky" />{{Rp|15}} At the time, Wedge had been the thesis advisor for [[Carlos Saldanha]] while Saldanha was a graduate student at the [[School of Visual Arts]]; Wedge shared storyboard panels for ''Bunny'' with Saldanha during this time. After Saldanha's graduation, Blue Sky Studios hired him as an animator, and he later directed a few commercials. It was not until 1996 when Nina Rappaport, a producer at Blue Sky Studios, assigned Wedge to complete the ''Bunny'' project, which required CGI Studio to render fur, glass, and metal from multiple light sources, such as a swinging light bulb and an "ethereal cloudscape". In the initial stages of the ''Bunny'' project, Carl Ludwig modified CGI Studio to simulate [[Radiosity (computer graphics)|radiosity]], which tracks light rays as they reflect off of multiple surfaces. Blue Sky Studios released ''Bunny'' in 1998, and it received the [[Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film]]. ''Bunny''~~<nowiki/>~~'s success gave Blue Sky Studios the opportunity to produce feature-length films.<ref name="ArtOfBlueSky" />{{Rp|15}}

In March 1999, Fox decided to sell VIFX to another visual effects house, [[Rhythm & Hues Studios]], while Blue Sky Studios would remain under Fox.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Graser |first1=Marc |title=Fox to sell visual F/X division to R&H |url=https://variety.com/1999/digital/news/fox-to-sell-visual-f-x-division-to-r-h-1117491896/ |website=Variety |publisher=Variety Media |access-date=June 10, 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170219010257/https://variety.com/1999/digital/news/fox-to-sell-visual-f-x-division-to-r-h-1117491896/ |archive-date=February 19, 2017 |url-status=live |date=March 3, 1999}}</ref> According to Chris Wedge, Fox considered selling Blue Sky as well by 2000 due to financial difficulties in the visual effects industry in general. Instead, Wedge, film producer Lori Forte, and animation executive [[Chris Meledandri]] presented Fox with a script for a comedy [[feature film]] titled [[Ice Age (2002 film)|''Ice Age'']].<ref name=":2">{{cite web|url=https://variety.com/2008/film/features/fox-animation-soars-under-blue-sky-1117984996/|title=Fox animation soars under Blue Sky|last1=Fritz|first1=Ben|date=May 2, 2008|website=Variety|publisher=Variety Media|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170628130716/https://variety.com/2008/film/features/fox-animation-soars-under-blue-sky-1117984996/|archive-date=June 28, 2017|url-status=live|access-date=June 10, 2018}}</ref> Studio management pressured staff to sell their remaining shares and options to Fox on the promise of continued employment on feature-length films. The studio moved to White Plains NY and started production on ''Ice Age''. As the film wrapped, Fox feared that it might bomb at the box office. They terminated half of the production staff and tried unsuccessfully to find a buyer for the film and the studio.{{Citation needed|date=June 2018}} Instead, ''Ice Age'' was released by 20th Century Fox on March 15, 2002, and was a critical and commercial success, receiving a nomination for an [[Academy Award for Best Animated Feature]] at the [[75th Academy Awards]] in 2003.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.oscars.org/oscars/ceremonies/2003|title=The 75th Academy Awards, 2003|website=Oscars.org|date=October 5, 2014 |publisher=Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences|access-date=June 10, 2018|archive-date=April 17, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180417092738/https://www.oscars.org/oscars/ceremonies/2003|url-status=live}}</ref> The film established Blue Sky as the third studio, after [[Pixar]] and [[DreamWorks Animation]], to launch a successful CGI franchise.<ref name=":2" />
