Blue Sky Studios, Inc. was an American visual effects and computer animation film studio based in Greenwich, Connecticut. It was a subsidiary of 20th Century Studios, an acquired division of The Walt Disney Studios (making it the first and only Disney-owned animation studio not having films distributed under the Walt Disney Pictures banner).

Independent era
Throughout the late 1980s and 1990s, Blue Sky Studios concentrated on the production of television commercials and visual effects for film. In August 1997, 20th Century Fox's Los Angeles-based visual effects company, VIFX, acquired majority interest in Blue Sky Studios to form a new visual effects and animation company, temporarily renamed "Blue Sky/VIFX". Starting in 1990, Chris Wedge had been working on a short film named Bunny, intended to demonstrate CGI Studio. Blue Sky Studios released Bunny in 1998, and it received the Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film. Bunny's success gave Blue Sky Studios the opportunity to produce feature-length films. In March 1999, Fox decided to sell VIFX to another visual effects house, Rhythm & Hues Studios, while Blue Sky Studios would remain under Fox. In 2002, Blue Sky Studios produced their first feature film named Ice Age.
Disney acquisition
Blue Sky was acquired by the Walt Disney Company as part of their 2019 acquisition of the entertainment assets of 21st Century Fox, which concluded on March 20, 2019. On March 21, Disney announced that Blue Sky Studios and its parent company 20th Century Fox Animation would be integrated as units within the Walt Disney Studios with Co-Presidents Andrea Miloro and Robert Baird continuing to lead the studio reporting to Walt Disney Studios Chairman Alan Horn. Spies in Disguise was the first and only Blue Sky Studios film to be distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures. On July 25, it was announced that Andrea will be stepping down as co-president at Blue Sky, leaving Baird as the sole president of the company. On August 9, former Walt Disney Animation Studios president, Andrew Millstein has been named co-president of Blue Sky alongside Baird, while Jim Morris, president of Pixar Animation Studios would also be taking a supervising role. On February 9, 2021, it was announced that Disney would shut down Blue Sky due to the COVID-19 pandemic and laying off their 450 employees. Their characters and films are said to be retained by them. Their last project was Spies in Disguise, released on Christmas Day 2019 in the US and Boxing Day 2019 in the UK and other countries. This also led to the cancellation of their movie Ninoma that was supposed to be released in January 2022 (Annapurna Pictures would later pick up the film and it would be distributed by Netflix in 2023). In March 2022, one year after Blue Sky's closure, amid the controversy of Disney's involvement in Florida's Parental Rights in Education "Don't Say Gay" bill and lack of criticism from CEO Bob Chapek until after the bill had passed, Insider reported that three former Blue Sky staff members stated Nimona received pushback from Disney leadership in mid-2020, centered around the film's LGBT themes and a same-sex kiss (even though Disney's own TV show The Owl House also featured a same-gender couple). Initially, Blue Sky leadership removed the same-sex kiss from "presentations to Disney, despite hoping to ultimately include it in the film, the sources said. [...] Blue Sky leadership eventually showed reels to staffers that included the kiss, the sources said, but the studio was shut down soon after".
