Studio Watson

Studio Watson is an Canadian-American entertainment and production company established by Oliver Watson and his girlfriend, Janette Morrissey. The company is owned by Illustrious, Watson's personal holding company.

Since its founding, the company has expanded beyond its original purpose of producing films and television shows.

The company made its first expansions with either the purchases or launches of:
 * RadicalMedia and Floyd County Productions (now Watson Creative and split between Studio Watson Animation and Watson Creative Animation, respectively)
 * Bento Box Entertainment (now Studio Watson Animation) from Fox Corporation to Studio Watson
 * the arrivals of Alexander Cole and Amber Lawson from The Eclipse Group (and the launch of A2 Media)
 * the launch of Janette Morrissey's Morrissey Entertainment
 * and the partnerships with Martin Glass' of Gearbox Films and Brendan Pretzel's Pretzel Lake.

The company has also either purchased or bought a stake in companies to grow, from CollegeHumor, to Bobby Goldstein Productions (later folded into Studio Watson Television).

It is headquartered at the Sony Pictures Studios Lot in Culver City, California, with Canadian operations in Toronto, and is backed by Sony Pictures and Sony Music, which are also owned by Illustrious.
