The German brand management- and media company m4e AG is partnering with China\u2019s leading animation provider WeKids Asia, which will be introducing two of m4e\u2019s most popular animated preschool series – \u201cWissper\u201d and \u201cTip the Mouse\u201d – to the Chinese market. WeKids has acquired the rights to distribute the shows across a variety of TV broadcasters and VOD platforms, as well as for licensing & merchandising throughout Mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Macau.<\/p>\n
\u201dWe are thrilled to be working with Mr. Sean Chu and his team at WeKids on our two preschool brands Wissper and Tip the Mouse. This collaboration clearly demonstrates the global approach of our projects. This, combined with the expertise and reputation of our partner WeKids will surely create visible footprints of both properties in the China territory\u201c says Bernd Conrad, m4e\u2019s Commercial Director Asia.<\/p>\n
Sean Chu, founder and CEO of WeKids adds: \u201cWe are excited to be granted the opportunity to bring these delightful and whimsical properties to the children and families of Greater China. Both Wissper and Tip the Mouse have all the characteristics that Chinese audiences love: adorable characters, high-quality animation, simple but engaging stories, and most important to Chinese parents, positive social and emotional messaging that is developmentally appropriate to pre-schoolers. These TV-series are beautifully made by m4e, and we are confident that Wissper and Tip the Mouse will become enduring favorites with the Chinese public.\u201d<\/p>\n
The preschool CGI animation series \u201cWissper\u201d (52 x 7\u2019) follows the adventures of a little girl who has a very special talent – she is able to communicate with animals. This allows her to understand their problems and help solve them together. \u201cWissper\u201d was co-produced by London-based animation studio Absolutely Cuckoo and m4e AG, Telegael (Ireland), Discreet Art Productions (India), and the German BASTEI Media GmbH. Originally commissioned by Channel 5\u2019s kids strand Milkshake!, the animated comedy-adventure is already being successfully broadcast in many countries. The brand\u2019s worldwide distribution is managed by m4e.<\/p>\n
The 52 episodes of the TV-series \u201cTip the Mouse\u201d were produced by m4e, Studio Bozzetto & Co., Giunti Editore, Studio Campedelli and Rai Fiction. The series is based on the internationally renown and popular children\u2019s books of the same name by Italian author Andrea Dami. More than 11 million books have already been sold worldwide, including Latin America. The worldwide distribution of all rights of \u201cTip the Mouse\u201d is managed by m4e, excluding Italian-speaking Europe, Spain, Andorra and Portugal.<\/p>\n
