Superprod

France’s TV5 and Switzerland’s RTS have both picked up 2D-animated toon Harrison and me (52 x 11 minutes), which went into production this week. Superprod and Vivement Lundi! are the co-producers behind this loose adaptation of an eco-focused book series called The Zero Waste Family by Jérémie Pichon and Bénédicte Moret. Superprod first announced the project in 2018 and later used the working title Me and My Compost; and France Télévisions commissioned it in 2022. The show targets five- to eight-year-olds with a story about a compost creature who teaches kids about recycling and gardening.

Rainbocorns

ZURU is moving its Rainbocorns brand from the toy shelf into the metaverse with a branded experience launching on Roblox in March. It will feature a variety of quests set in the land of Rainboville, plus opportunities to collect digital accessories, matching outfits, rainbow berries and 30 different Rainbocorns to hatch and raise. ZURU began rolling out webisodes based on the toy brand in 2019 on a YouTube channel that now has nearly 50,000 subscribers.  

Two Daughters Entertainment

Moley is digging into the fashion world for the first time, thanks to a new deal with British apparel manufacturer Teemill. Rolling out now, the IP’s inaugural clothing line offers T-shirts, sweatshirts and hoodies for kids—all made using organic materials and renewable energy in order to align with the eco-friendly themes of the four-year-old CG-animated series (52 x 11 minutes) that underpins the brand.
