The First Animation Studio in Karakalpakstan

Sa'werTales Animation Studio was founded in January 2026 in Nukus, Uzbekistan. We are the first professional animation studio in the Karakalpakstan region, built on a mission to tell the stories of our people through world-class 3D animation.

Our team of 16 talented artists, animators, and technical artists was born and raised in this region — we live the stories we tell. The Aral Sea disaster, the ancient Karakalpak traditions, the resilience of our culture — these are not just themes for us, they are our identity.

We produce both original IP and offer B2B animation services to international studios, combining deep cultural authenticity with professional-grade production quality.
