Paramount announced today that they're starting their own animation studio, aptly called Paramount Animation, with their first flick to be released by 2014!
It looks like they're going kid and family friendly, of course, and will be releasing stuff under the Nickelodeon banner:

"Paramount Animation’s mandate will be the development of the broadest range of family CGI animated films, with a key piece being titles under the label of Viacom’s Nickelodeon, the number one entertainment brand for kids worldwide. Paramount will also look to build on Viacom’s already thriving global consumer products business by seeking to capitalize on merchandising opportunities tied to all Paramount Animation releases."
