Graphic Films was established in 1941, by former Disney animator, Lester Novros. Having worked as an animator on such Disney Classics as ASnow White@, ABambi@ and AFantasia@, Novros left the Hollywood animation community to create instructional and informational films that were highly stylized and uniquely designed. His first commission would be the creation of an instructional film for the Army Air Corps, teaching pilots how to bail out of a P-38.

Incorporated in 1946, Graphic Films became a strong entity in the production of films for all branches of the military as well the public and private sectors. The company soon gained a reputation for it's production of consistently creative       and innovative documentary and informational films.

As aerospace technology evolved in the early 1950's, production responsibility progressed into the creation of motion pictures for the Air Force Space Division. This was at a time when the word "satellite" was still considered a classified term. Graphic Films production proficiency quickly expanded to include numerous productions for the National Aeronautics and Space Agency - NASA.
