Vaibhav Studios was born out of a strong desire to tell longer stories (compared to the 30-seconders we were creating for TV commercials). I quit my five-year job to work on a short, 10-minute children’s animated film. And that gave us the confidence to continue making films on our own. That’s how the studio was born in 2003. Starting with a mini core team of two people, we are a slightly “less mini” core team of 17 today.
