Olaf Miller is an animation artist and one of the four co-founders of Atomic Cartoons, the Vancouver animation studio opened in early 1999 with Trevor Bentley, Mauro Casalese and Rob Davies. Miller, Bentley and Casalese had previously worked at Studio B Productions, while Davies came from Warner Bros. Animation. The four started the studio to handle pre-production for a 26-episode series, Milo's Bug Quest, and in the first month they did all the work themselves, with help from Casalese's wife Nancy as production manager, until the first client payment arrived. Only then did they hire staff, and that first job led to further work. Miller left the company in 2010 to launch a studio of his own, and Rob Simmons joined Atomic Cartoons as partner the same year.
