We are Grim Swim Studios! 🦈

A new volunteer-based indie animation studio founded by
Nicole Carpio that aims to become a full fledged funded studio, offering jobs and experience to upcoming artists and creators alike.

Currently, we're working on our first animated series, Seas of Grimoire, which follows the story of Rinto Lowell, the true wielder of the Grimoire with a troubled past looking for redemption and forgiveness from their peer, Odin von Blackwell, a mysterious student helper that leads a group of rebellious pirates and was a victim of bullying from Rinto’s old friend group. Together, alongside other unique teammates, must work together to put an end to the Boogeyman's reign of terror and save those affected by the Briar Sickness.

It takes heavy inspirations from Treasure Planet, Code Lyoko, and A Silent Voice. It features topics of bullying, dealing with trauma, and mental health. Currently in Pre-Production!
