Carl Reed, producer of the Academy Award®-winning short “Hair Love,” has launched Composition Media – a diverse and forward-thinking animation studio with an innovative approach to making animated film and TV content for a global audience, with much of the content highlighting minority and underrepresented communities.
Reed’s St. Louis-headquartered studio launches with a slate that includes two animated features and an animated kids TV series. The lone adult animated comedy is “Bad Grandmas” — a feature film co-produced alongside Steve Harvey’s East 112.
Bad Grandmas is a 2D animated adult-comedy film that follows a closely-knit group of unfiltered older ladies as they attempt to stay relevant as they age. They party, get Brazilian Butt Lifts, go to nightclubs and show how 65 is now the new 25. The movie is a cross between “The Boondocks” and “The Golden Girls,” with a talented cast of comedians. Created by Brandon Lee Anderson, who is represented by Joseph Adeife of Adeife & Rabii APC, and Executive Produced by Carl Reed, Steve Harvey and Brandon R. Williams, “Bad Grandmas” celebrates the idea that it’s never too late to have fun and be young at heart.
