Amityville, NY, August 5, 2024 – Modern Uprising Studios, a trailblazing 3D animation studio originally founded by Keith Robinson and Chuck Mongelli under the Motion Analysis corporate brand in the late 90s, is set to undergo an exciting reboot. Joe Nolan, a key figure who joined the team in 1999 and has a rich history of collaboration with Robinson and Mongelli, will lead the charge in this new era.
Nolan’s tenure with Modern Uprising Studios saw the production of groundbreaking projects for clients such as the Walt Disney Corporation, Nickelodeon, Discovery Kids, the BBC, and numerous AAA video game developers. The studio’s evolution into Perspectives Studios and eventual integration into Rockstar Games marked significant milestones in Nolan’s career. For the past decade, Nolan has been at the forefront of the sports technology and human performance industries, most recently founding Toro Science, a venture that harnesses artificial intelligence and machine learning to drive innovation across various sectors.
“Animation production has always been a passion of mine, ever since the beginning of my career,” Nolan stated. “When I started to better understand the capabilities of AI, it became clear that it had the potential to redefine the animation industry.”
As the founder of Toro Science, Nolan will continue to influence its diverse ventures while taking on a day-to-day role at Modern Uprising Studios as the company’s CEO. Nolan revealed that the studio is already developing several projects, with plans to announce their upcoming slate soon.
When asked about the goal for Modern Uprising Studios, he shared his vision: “My dream for the company is to leverage technology in a way that allows a small studio with a talented team to produce projects that were once only possible for the largest studios in the world. Also, this technology enables us to work across platforms in film, gaming, and episodic series.”
These are indeed exciting times with the advent of AI, and the industry eagerly anticipates the innovations Modern Uprising Studios will bring to the animation production space.
