The 26-episode half-hour show is based on the popular book of the same name by leaders in children's content, mother-son duo Betty and Mickey Paraskevas (Maggie and the Ferocious Beast, Junior Knoll).
Toon Boom has worked closely with Clockwork Zoo and the Cape Film Commission to present the benefits of using field-proven technology to grow the animation industry in South Africa and make it attractive to such prestigious partners as Cookie Jar.
"We are fully dedicated to making South Africa a viable animation hub and we are very proud to see such great players embarking on a common venture. This is a wonderful example of what Toon Boom is committed to do: provide animation technology and know-how to producers and creators as well as facilitate business introductions within the Toon Boom community," said Joan Vogelesang, president and chief executive officer at Toon Boom.
