DreamWorks Animation
DreamWorks Animation is an American animation studio headquartered in Glendale, California. The company develops and produces animated feature films, television series, streaming programs, short-form content, franchise properties, consumer products, and entertainment experiences. DreamWorks is known for globally recognized franchises including Shrek, Kung Fu Panda, How to Train Your Dragon, Madagascar, Trolls, The Boss Baby, The Croods, Puss in Boots, and Gabby’s Dollhouse, among many other film and television properties.
DreamWorks Animation traces its origins to 1994, when Steven Spielberg, Jeffrey Katzenberg, and David Geffen founded DreamWorks SKG. The animation operation later became a separately publicly traded company before eventually being acquired by NBCUniversal in 2016. Today, DreamWorks Animation operates as a business within Universal Filmed Entertainment Group and NBCUniversal, which in turn is owned by Comcast Corporation.
The studio remains headquartered in Glendale. DreamWorks’ current Careers FAQ explicitly confirms that the company is headquartered in Glendale, California, and current 2026 government corporate records continue to list DreamWorks Animation L.L.C., 1000 Flower Street, Glendale, CA 91201 as its principal address.

DreamWorks develops and produces animated theatrical feature films intended for global cinema distribution and subsequent home-entertainment and streaming release. Productions combine story development, visual development, character animation, effects, lighting, editing, sound, music, and extensive proprietary and third-party production technology.
Shrek is one of DreamWorks’ most recognizable entertainment franchises. It includes multiple feature films, spin-offs, licensed merchandise, streaming distribution, theme-park appearances, and related entertainment projects that continue to contribute to DreamWorks’ global brand identity.
The Kung Fu Panda franchise combines theatrical animation, television, streaming content, merchandise, games, and other licensed products. The property follows Po and a broader martial-arts fantasy world that has become one of DreamWorks’ longest-running global franchises.
How to Train Your Dragon began as an animated-film franchise and has expanded into television, streaming, merchandise, games, theme-park entertainment, and live-action adaptation. Its characters and settings remain major intellectual-property assets within NBCUniversal.
Madagascar encompasses feature films, television programming, streaming content, shorts, licensed products, and location-based entertainment. Characters such as Alex, Marty, Melman, Gloria, and the Penguins have supported multiple spin-offs and franchise extensions.
The Trolls franchise spans animated films, music, television, streaming, consumer merchandise, and licensing. Music plays an especially important role in the property, with films built around popular songs, original recordings, and high-profile performers.
The Boss Baby has been developed across feature films and episodic streaming content. The franchise demonstrates DreamWorks’ ability to extend theatrical properties into television and digital programming designed for family audiences.
Puss in Boots expanded a character originally introduced within the Shrek universe into a standalone franchise. The property includes feature films, television and streaming content, merchandise, and licensed entertainment.
Gabby’s Dollhouse is a DreamWorks television and streaming franchise aimed at younger audiences. It has grown into consumer products, toys, publishing, live experiences, and other extensions, demonstrating DreamWorks’ increasing emphasis on building franchises across multiple entertainment formats.
DreamWorks Animation Television produces animated series for broadcast and streaming partners. Its programming includes original concepts and series based on existing DreamWorks franchises, allowing the studio to extend characters and stories beyond theatrical films.
DreamWorks produces animated entertainment for major streaming platforms. Streaming allows the studio to develop shorter series, preschool programming, franchise spin-offs, and stories targeted at different age groups without relying solely on theatrical release schedules.

DreamWorks explicitly states that it does not provide public studio tours.
Complaints may involve licensed merchandise, intellectual property, website use, employment interactions, recruitment, accessibility, consumer experiences, or interactions involving a DreamWorks franchise. Since DreamWorks is part of NBCUniversal, some complaints belong with the relevant Universal business rather than the Glendale production studio.
Begin by identifying whether the complaint concerns DreamWorks Animation itself, a streaming provider, Universal Pictures distribution, a licensed toy or product, Universal theme-park experience, or another partner. Many consumer transactions involving DreamWorks intellectual property are performed by third parties, so directing the complaint to the company that actually sold or provided the product can produce a faster resolution.
If the issue involves a purchased movie, streaming subscription, toy, game, licensed merchandise, or theme-park service, contact the retailer, platform, manufacturer, or Universal business involved. Provide the receipt, transaction date, product details, screenshots, and any prior correspondence. DreamWorks Animation itself may not control refunds or customer accounts for third-party services.
For an issue directly involving the animation studio, contact or write to DreamWorks Animation L.L.C., 1000 Flower Street, Glendale, CA 91201. Include your full contact details, relevant production, service, department, dates, and previous attempts at resolution. Keep correspondence factual and concise.
Employment applicants should use the DreamWorks Careers platform. DreamWorks does not accept mailed portfolios or physical applications and advises applicants to review application status through their online profile. If a complaint concerns recruitment technology or application status, preserve job IDs, submission dates, emails, and screenshots.
DreamWorks explicitly states that it does not accept unsolicited ideas or pitches. If your complaint relates to a rejected unsolicited submission, understand that the studio’s published policy is designed to avoid accepting unrequested creative concepts. Do not repeatedly send scripts, story concepts, character proposals, or copyrighted creative material through general contact channels.
If the issue involves a DreamWorks-branded toy, apparel item, book, game, or other licensed product, escalate with the company named on the product packaging or receipt. DreamWorks may own the intellectual property while the licensee controls manufacturing quality, warranty, fulfillment, or refunds. Keep photographs, packaging, product codes, and retailer information.
If the issue involves corporate policies, privacy, broader entertainment operations, or a service controlled by NBCUniversal, use the appropriate NBCUniversal contact or legal process. Explain that the concern relates to DreamWorks Animation and provide the Glendale studio information where relevant so the complaint can be routed properly.
For a serious unresolved DreamWorks-specific complaint, send written correspondence to DreamWorks Animation L.L.C., 1000 Flower Street, Glendale, CA 91201. Include a timeline, supporting documents, reference numbers, names of departments contacted, and the exact resolution requested. Use copies rather than original records and keep proof of delivery.
If internal routes do not resolve the issue, determine which external process actually has jurisdiction. Employment complaints can involve labor agencies, privacy complaints may involve privacy regulators, consumer transactions can involve state consumer-protection authorities, and intellectual-property disputes may require specialized legal procedures. Preserve all communications and evidence before filing externally.
