Gogo Bus & Team Steam, a new series from China’s Winsing Animation, is among the IPs being presented at the MIPJunior Project Pitch this weekend.

The MIPJunior Project Pitch takes place October 13 from 2:45 p.m. to 4 p.m. in the JW Marriott Grand Theatre, featuring five short-listed shows that are seeking financing.

The 104×15-minute Gogo Bus & Team Steam explores the daring rescues and exciting adventures of Team Steam on an island with innovative new technologies, natural wonders and a variety of wildlife. The edutainment show promotes teamwork and emphasizes social and emotional learning. It is a spinoff of Winsing’s preschool hit Gogo Bus. Seasons three and four of Gogo Bus are in the works in China, following the adventures of children in a beautiful coastal town, learning and playing in Sunshine Forest Kindergarten. Keeping the children safe is an AI school bus named Gordon, which can transform into a range of other vehicles whenever the children run into problems.

Echo Gu, VP of Winsing Animation, said, “Gogo Bus has been a big success in its home market and the arrival of Team Steam will bring a whole new dimension to the brand. We’re very excited about Gogo Bus & Team Steam and we’re sure that the jury at the MIPJunior Project Pitch will be excited too!”

The other shows being presented at the pitch are Little Who Who from Croatia, Quirkistador: Book of Tales from Luxembourg, Spookies from Germany and The Curious World of Linda from South Korea.
