SD Entertainment is a dormant American animation studio specialising in direct-to-DVD and theatrical movies for children. The "SD" in the initials of the company name stand for Sabella Dern, the respective last names of its founders: former MGM Animation employees Paul Sabella and Jonathan Dern.

The company is based in Woodland Hills, California. It owned two subsidiaries, Kidtoon Films and The Bigger Picture, that deal with the distribution of SD's productions in digital venues across the United States. They were eventually acquired by Cinedigm (now Cineverse).

As of 2023, the company, despite still existing, has been dormant since 2011. This is likely due to the fact that the studio was facing competition with higher-budget computer-animation studios such as Pixar, DreamWorks, Blue Sky (no longer open as of April 2021) and Illumination.
