SEK Studio

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

SEK Studio (from "Scientific Educational Korea") is a North Korean animation studio, based in Pyongyang. It was registered in 1997 in order to take part at a festival of animated film in France. SEK has done work on such films as Pocahontas.

SEK Studio employs over 1500 people^[1] and subcontracts work for over 70 companies from around the globe, including Europe, South Korea, and the USA.

In his graphic novel Pyongyang, Guy Delisle documented his experience as an in-site liaison between SEK and a French studio.
