CANNES: MIPCOM will be the launch pad for the all-new season two of Splatalot for Distribution360.

“Season one’s action and humor have thrilled millions of kids in over 100 countries, including the U.S. on Nickelodeon,” says Kirsten Hurd, the company’s senior sales executive. The success of the brand in the digital arena has also made Distribution360 eager to explore more opportunities with emerging platforms. “Our Splatalot games have garnered tens of millions of plays worldwide, and we want to build on that success.”

The company is also continuing on its well-established kids’ brand This Is… with a third installment, This Is Scarlett and Isaiah. Broadcasters looking for preschool fare can turn to Distribution360 for its Olive the Ostrich series. “We are hoping to connect with existing buyers of Splatalot and This Is… to firm up broadcast deals for the new episodes,” notes Hurd. “We would also like to secure some free-TV windows for Olive the Ostrich, which has done so well for us in the cable market.”
