Rough Draft Studios, Inc. (RDS) is an animation studio founded by Gregg Vanzo after he had finished directing season 1 of The Simpsons. Its primary headquarters are located in Glendale, California, United States with its sister studio, Rough Draft Korea in Seoul, South Korea.

Rough Draft Studios, Inc. (RDS) was originally founded in 1991 in a Van Nuys, Los Angeles, California garage. Over time it has developed into a full-fledged animation studio for film and television, with specialties in both character-driven animation and in the blending of 2-D with computer animation (as showcased in The Simpsons Movie and Futurama).

RDS is currently run by Gregg Vanzo (Director, President), Claudia Katz (Producer, Sr. Vice President), Rich Moore (Director, Sr. Vice President of Creative Affairs), and Scott Vanzo (Director of CGI, Chief Technology Officer).
