Super Punchy Studios is a Los Angeles microdrama studio founded in January 2026 by Salvador Paskowitz, a writer whose credits include The Age of Adaline, and Timothy Nelligan. It produces original vertical series and distributes them through its own application. Its title Step by Step, 60 episodes directed by Paskowitz and written by Halo Gracey and Kristin Paskowitz, premiered in May 2026 as a paid exclusive on that application. In September 2026 the studio made the same title available free on TikTok, using a video-sharing platform as a release window for a catalogue title rather than as a competing destination. No revenue share, windowing schedule or exclusivity term was disclosed for that arrangement, and the studio has published no audience or revenue figures. Its corporate form is recorded as Super Punchy Studios LLC in App Store seller data; no corporate registry record has been obtained, and its state of formation is not established.
