Illumination seem to make all their films on a consistently small budget (relatively speaking). It's pretty impressive:

Despicable Me: $69 million
Hop: $63 million
The Lorax: $70 million
Despicable Me 2: $76 million
Minions: $74 million
The Secret Life of Pets: $75 million
Sing: $75 million

Universal/Illumination's films are done by a french studio named Mac Guff. Who always turn in a good looking animated film on a decent budget. Compared to their rivals who often get weighed down by production bloat. Not to mention wage fixing where the top brass come out like bandits while exploiting workers.
