Skybound Entertainment reaches for the stars in Japan.

Dear Hollywood and Los Angeles-adjacent colleagues who do content business in, around, alongside, and with Japan,

Please heed the groundbreaking, Japan-centric Skybound Entertainment announcement below. This means you, Neko Productions, Brainstorm Productions, PandaMony Toy Brands, Autism in Entertainment Conference, Lightbeam Entertainment, LA Media Consultants, Dentsu USA, Sega of America, DJ2 Entertainment, Story Kitchen, Wowmax Next, TMS Entertainment, Weissman-Markovitz Communications, The Asian World Film Festival, Los Angeles Shorts International Film Festival, La Femme Film Festival, Breakthrough Now Media, Anime Expo, JETRO, VIPO, SPJA, KOTRA, KOCCA, KOFIC, and other friendly producing entities who are here in spirit.

Clearly, Skybound Entertainment is not content to rest on its laurels, so you shouldn’t either! In this case, ‘laurels’ means Spike & Mike’s Festival of Animation. As of last month, Skybound is the proud new owner and rebooter of edgy, iconic, classic, touring movie and live event brand Spike & Mike. Today, those Skybound rascals show off with another gem, namely Skybound Japan. Stateside show biz folks, there is no snoozing for you at a time like this. There is gold in those hills: in Hollywood and on slopes in the same country as Mount Fuji.
