Industry:    2018-06-08

Toonz Media group has tied up with Australia-based Yellow Entertainment for co-development and co-production partnership and global distribution deal for multiple pre-school animated series.

The partnership between both companies, each with proven track records producing world-class children’s content, will bring forth commercially attractive and kids-engaging preschool tiles with universal appeal to the global marketplace.

Yellow Entertainment’s strategic focus is developing and distributing preschool IP with an educational and interactive approach to children around the world. The Wiggles, one of the longest running, and still touring, international billion-dollar children’s brands, was co-created by Greg Page over 25 years ago. Toonz, through its state-of-the-art animation studio in India, has produced numerous successful kids and family entertainment brands through its global production partnerships with companies including Disney, Turner, Nickelodeon, Sony, Universal, BBC, and Paramount.

Greg Page, president of Yellow Entertainment, will serve as executive producer. P. Jayakumar (CEO, Toonz) and Alec Miller (VP creative development, Yellow Entertainment) will be producers. Yellow Entertainment will handle pre-production, including IP creation, scripts, and music, while Toonz will lead all other aspects of production.
