Skellington Productions was an American animation studio and production company that was a joint venture between Walt Disney Feature Animation and directors Henry Selick and Tim Burton. The company specialized in stop motion animation and made use of the art in its two films.[1] The studio's last work was season one of KaBlam!, after which it was closed by Disney.[citation needed]
