Spirit Bridge Studio
Our Story & Visionary Foundation

Genesis of the World’s Greatest Animation Studio

Spirit Bridge Studio was established in Coventry in 2022 by co-founders Pritpal Rai and Ben Barter. They were united by a single, ambitious vision: to build the world’s leading hub for creative storytelling, producing work that achieves global impact and resonates for a lifetime.

Ben, a world-class artist with a portfolio including Disney, Warner Bros, and the BBC, brought exceptional creative proficiency. Pritpal, founder of media house IM1313, brought a drive to elevate storytelling to global standards.

Their early collaborations on acclaimed children’s books and animations formed the nucleus of the studio, uniting top tier UK talent driven by a shared ambition for industry leadership.
