The Ink Tank was a design and animation production company in New York.

History[edit]

R.O. Blechman founded The Ink Tank in 1978 after he produced the PBS Christmas television special Simple Gifts. The Ink Tank went on to produce hundred of commercials and IDs for clients like Barneys New York, MTV and Perrier, title sequences for HBO and the Sundance Channel, and the Emmy-winning Great Performances special The Soldier's Tale. In 1997, The Ink Tank launched The Ink Tank Too, a short-lived division which represented Susan Pitt, Maciek Albrecht, Santiago Cohen, and John Robertson.
