Toronto, Canada-based Picture Box Distribution has picked up four animated series for distribution.
Turtlebox Productions’ Will’s Jams and Adrian Dean’s Doowett (32 x two minutes) have been picked up for global distribution. Will’s Jams, currently airing on pubcaster CBC, is a hybrid live-action/animated series that encourages kids to stay active and healthy, while preschool-targeted Doowett is about expression through music. Doowett is produced by Dean for provincial broadcaster City Saskatchewan.
For international distribution outside the US, Picture Box has also signed on Silver Hammer Studios’ 45-minute Halloween special The Dancing Pumpkin and Moochie Kalala Detectives Club (six x half hours) from Chicago-based Dreaming Tree Films and PBS station WTTW.
Other series currently in the Picture Box catalog include Annedroids (Sinking Ship Entertainment), Yup Yups (Radical Sheep Productions) and Lady Vocab (TVOKids).
