Satelight

Satelight is a Japanese Anime studio mostly known for the Animated Adaptation of Fairy Tail and Macross Frontier.

First established in 1995, the company is the second Japanese studio (T Ms was the 1st due to Akira and Toshihiko Masuda's Hooked On A Ceiling when Michelangelo paints the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel) to utilize digital Animation (Production IG, Wang Film Productions and AKOM would follow shortly after. Mainly due to CG usage). The company also uses CG in many (if not all) of their works.

Compare Rough Draft Studios, Toon City, GONZO, DR Movie and Digital E Mation, who also use CG in their animation.

Tropes exhibited by Satelight:
 * Animation Bump: Certain episodes of Macross Frontier, often the CG is of far higher quality. This can quality for most of their anime, including Basquash!! and Genesis of Aquarion.
 * Conspicuous CG: Often called upon by other companies to do so. Also present in their own work.
 * Deranged Animation: They worked with Hong Ying on Basquash!!, which is an odd series in and of itself. Fairy Tail also has its moments.
 * No Export for You: They're one of the involved with the Macross licensing spat.
 * Off Model
