ATF Spotlight: Next Animation Studio

Max and Moon learn and use popular idioms such as “sleep tight” and “put a sock in it” in the series Out of This Word, on offer from Next Animation Studio.

It is Next Animation Studio’s “first edutainment series, which explores English idioms and phrases and their origins,” says Indra Suharjono, the company’s CEO. “We’ve received positive feedback from parents who thought it was an interesting way for their kids to learn new words.”

nxBEATS, meanwhile, is a collection of modern renditions of classic children’s songs such as “BINGO.” Suharjono says that “nxBEATS offers a completely new kind of sound that appeals to not just toddlers but also older kids, thanks to its upbeat and hip-hop elements.” There is also Mad Box Zombies, which Suharjono notes has “gained tremendous growth in viewership in the past year,” including from Southeast Asia.

“We have seen significant growth in the Asia-Pacific region and anticipate that it will become an even more important area for our business going forward,” says Suharjono.
