Next Media Animation is an animation and news company based out of Taiwan, the company became known for its short, often comedic animated videos in America after covering Tiger Wood's extramarital affairs late in 2009 and eventually through comical feud with Conan O'Brien. Adult Swim enlisted the company in early 2010 to make a series of Bumps titled Adult Swim Eyewitness Nightbeat, which covered a variety of real stories in their signature comedic style. The short series even spawned it's own character The Nigthbeat Eye and gave him his own mini story.
