Broadcasters in Sweden, South Africa and Thailand have taken to The Owl, a series of 52 one-minute CG-animated shorts from German children right’s owner and producer TV-Loonland. The company has secured deals with Sweden’s SVT, South Africa’s pay-TV operator M-Net and Thailand’s UBC subsidiary Cineplex Co.
Created and directed by Alexandre So, The Owl is a co-production of TV-Loonland, Paris-based Studio Hari and French public network France 3. In the shorts, a pink owl endures an unending string of hilarious mishaps, which often leave her in pieces. The property made its TV debut last month on France 3 but is also designed to work on multiple platforms including Internet and mobile. Full delivery of the series is set for June of 2007.
Other properties distributed worldwide by TV-Loonland include the series Pettson and Findus, The Cramp Twins, Transformers, Little Princess and My Little Pony.
