Twin Engine founded the EOTA studio group in April 2020. EOTA enables studios to pool resources and work together to produce video content for worldwide distribution, creating short content for media social media and other platforms, and form a team that can continue to create works under flexible circumstances. The new studio group allows studios to collaborate and leverage each other’s strengths and expertise. Twin Engine founded two new anime studios in October 2021: BUG FILMS and Scooter Films. The studios are part of the EOTA group.
Representative director Kōji Yamamoto founded Twin Engine in 2014.
