Originally founded as Mainframe Entertainment, we operated under the name Rainmaker Entertainment for over a decade, but we've now returned to our roots.

Founded in 1993, Mainframe created the very first fully-CG TV series, ReBoot. Since then, we've produced more than 1000 half-hours of TV, over 60 feature-length projects, and two theatrical feature films. We've been innovators and creators since day one, and have partnered with some of the biggest names in the business. Our creative-driven approach marries seamlessly with our rock-solid production processes, allowing us to deliver great storytelling that's on-time and on-budget.

In 2017, Rainmaker Entertainment joined forces with Fred Seibert's Frederator Networks, one of the most innovative entertainment companies in the world, to form WOW! Unlimited Media Inc. Mainframe Studios is a division of WOW! Unlimited Media Inc.
