About Us
Gazelle Automations is an award-winning film production company specializing in puppets, model miniatures and animation. We’re currently in production on Go Togo, our brand new preschool TV series for CBC Kids.
Wife-and-husband team Lindsay and Justin Lee formed Gazelle Automations to tell stories through the magic of handmade puppets and models. From humble beginnings in the back room of a pizza shop (where pizza orders were literally passing through shot), Gazelle Automations now sees projects through from concept and fabrication to production, VFX and finishing.
Our clients and production partners include Anderson Entertainment, the BBC, CBC Kids, Century 21 Films, Decently Creative, ITV, Publicis NA, Shaftesbury, TVOKids and the University of Tokyo.

ABOUT GAZELLES
Gazelles are rather small antelopes, most standing 60–110 cm (2–3.5 ft) high at the shoulder, and are generally fawn-colored. We are unsure of their feelings about puppets.
