20th Digital Studio[2] (also known onscreen as simply 20th Digital and formerly known as Fox Digital Studio from 2008 to 2013 and Zero Day Fox from 2013 to 2020) is an American web series and web films production and distribution company founded in 2008 as a digital media, and is a subsidiary of 20th Century Studios,[3] a division of Walt Disney Studios, which is itself a division of The Walt Disney Company. Their focus has evolved to funding and producing short-form genre content by new filmmakers from the digital and film festival worlds. It was established in 2008.

It has produced web series such as Vin Diesel's The Ropes, Wolfpack of Reseda, Let's Big Happy, Suit Up, Bad Samaritans, and Suit Up 2, as well as films like Shotgun Wedding. Suit Up, starring Marc Evan Jackson, is the first of the studio's shows to be picked up for a second season. It was produced in partnership with DirecTV.[4]

20th Digital Studio is one of the 21st Century Fox studios that was acquired by Disney on March 20, 2019.[1]

[edit]

The original Fox Digital Studio logo was created in 2007 by UK-based motion graphics and 3D artist Robert Holtby.[5] As of 2013 Holtby updated the logo to reflect the new Fox Digital Studio rebranding, as "Zero Day Fox" and to move it more in line with the other 20th Century Fox logos created by Blue Sky Studios.

The current 20th Digital Studio logo was made in line with 20th Television's logo,[6] following Disney's removal of the "Fox" brand from the 21st Century Fox assets acquired in 2019 to avoid confusion with Fox Corporation.
