Ocelotl Company is a Mexican film and animation production company based in Guadalajara, Jalisco. The studio specializes in high-quality audiovisual content that blends rich Mexican cultural heritage — particularly Aztec mythology — with modern, internationally appealing storytelling and creative universal stories.
What Stands Out
Strong Cultural Identity: Their flagship project is the animated trilogy “The Mark of the Jaguar” (La Marca del Jaguar), an epic adventure full of fantasy, action, and emotion set in the Aztec world. It is one of the first large-scale Latin American animations where indigenous Mesoamerican culture takes center stage as the main protagonist. International Recognition: The project has been selected multiple times at prestigious industry events such as the Berlinale Co-Production Market, MIPCOM, Ventana Sur, Annecy, and Viva México. Ocelotl has established co-production partnerships with studios in France (Hecat) and Brazil (Origem). Specializing in creating high-impact content for Latin audiences. Through powerful storytelling that fuses rich Mesoamerican mythology and culture with international quality standards, the company develops emotionally resonant, entertaining, and culturally relevant audiovisual projects that deeply connect with viewers across Latin America and the global Latino diaspora.
Strengths
Deep cultural authenticity and respect for Mexican heritage.
Clear ambition to position Mexican talent and stories on the global animation map.
Professional team with solid experience in international co-productions.
Summary
Ocelotl Company is a promising and passionate production house. In a market where Latin American animation still fights for visibility, Ocelotl represents a fresh and much-needed bet on telling our own stories with world-class standards. “The Mark of the Jaguar” has strong potential to become a benchmark for Mexican animation, much like Japan has done with its mythology or Disney with its fairy tales. If you're looking for a studio that combines Mexican pride with global ambition, Ocelotl Co. is an excellent choice.
