Welcome to Sunlight Media Group

Founded in 1942 during the Second World War, Sunlight Media Group began with a single mission: to provide comfort and joy to children living through uncertain times. Our earliest productions included animated shorts and radio programs that lifted spirits during the Battle of Midway and beyond.

Over the decades, SMG has grown from a wartime initiative into one of the leading names in family entertainment. With ventures in television, film, publishing, interactive media, and dining, our company has touched the lives of generations.
