New generations want a fresh approach to entertainment. We know that kids are online—and we see it as an opportunity to help blur the lines between “digital content” and “Saturday morning cartoon.”
Beginning with vibrant characters and storylines that rival major studios, Fuel Entertainment’s properties are created with today’s emerging audiences in mind and crafted specifically so that they can be leveraged into multiple touch-points—to spark imagination wherever your viewers go. From its award-winning MMO Spark City on AllGirlArcade.com, to its multi-platform properties developed with partners like Wildbrain!, Fuel Entertainment is where imagination meets interactivity.
As the Capital of Canada, Ottawa is one of the world’s most forward-thinking capitals, blending gorgeous green space and laid-back lifestyle with one of the country’s fastest growing animation marketplaces. Home to the Ottawa International Animation Festival, the city is a great culture for animators to pursue their passion.

Does this position require relocation to Ottawa? If so, is assistance provided?
Hi Eva,
I’d guess they’re looking for in-house artists, so yes to relocation. As far as assistance, you’d have to contact Fuel directly for an answer to that one.
Good luck.
