DNA Productions, Inc. was an American animation studio and production company based in Irving, Texas. It was founded in 1987 by John A. Davis and Keith Alcorn. The studio originally worked on miscellaneous projects for other companies, including commercials and corporate videos, before branching out to television and film animation.
DNA Productions began to thrive a decade after its formation, through a partnership with filmmaker Steve Oedekerk. The studio's first major project, Santa vs. the Snowman, was released in 1997. Other projects soon followed, including Olive, the Other Reindeer in 1999.
DNA Productions is best known for its Jimmy Neutron character, who debuted in the company's 2001 film Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius. A television series, The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron, Boy Genius, subsequently aired on Nickelodeon from 2002 to 2006. DNA's final film project was The Ant Bully, also released in 2006.
