HIT Entertainment unveiled Hippo’s House, its most recent children’s property, at MIPCOM as part of its ongoing development slate.
Created by Tattiemoon and planned for 52 10-minute CG-animated episodes, Hippo’s House is about a magical home full of wooden toys with human aspirations.
The company also has announced the signing of Dave Ingham, the BAFTA-nominated preschool writer of Waybuloo and Charlie and Lola, for a series called The Real Mees. The show, aimed at the 4-6 crowd, teaches children to seek out and accept help from your friends rather than going it alone. Another 52 x 10 min. series, The Real Mees is a creation of Absolutely Cuckoo, which was behind Waybuloo.
HIT also is in talks with broadcasters for its previously announced project, Mike the Knight, also in development as a 52 x 10 min. CG animated series.
