Cyber Group, Tiji Unveil New Series

CANNES: Cyber Group Studios has presold its new animated series Guess What?, produced for Tiji, into more than ten territories and will be looking to sign up more partners at MIPCOM this week.

Targeted at kids aged 3 to 6, the 52×7-minute show premieres on Tiji November 23. The interactive preschool series introduces Timothy and Annabel, two cute rabbits who solve riddles together. It was selected to compete in the MIPJUNIOR Kids Jury 2009.

"I am delighted with this new coproduction with Tiji, which lets us enter the world of interactivity and help children acquire new knowledge while having fun" said Pierre Sissmann, the president of Cyber Group Studios. 

Pierre Belaisch, the director of programming and channels at Lagardère Active, called Guess What? "a totally new experience for Tiji, where characters from the channel branding become heroes of an animation series in dazzling 3-D…. an adventure we are pleased to share with Cyber Group Studios."

The first episodes of the new series are being presented exclusively at MIPCOM today at an event at Restaurant Plage Royale on the Croisette.
