Digitoonz Spain has entered into a partnership with the creators of Drilo and The Gang and Maskeline for the co-development and global expansion of the IP.

Drilo and The Gang began as a music project under the artistic direction of children’s composer Andrés Meseguer. The new partnership aims to expand its narrative universe and establish it as a global, multi-format IP, including a series.

The 3D animated series will consist of 26 episodes of 7 minutes each. It will be developed targeting a preschool audience. The audiovisual adaptation will enhance the experience for young audiences, promoting values such as creativity, cooperation and environmental responsibility.

The global expansion also includes bolstering the live show format, which has already garnered over 1,200 performances across Spain, and developing a range of products, including licensing, merchandising, video games and theme parks.

Maria Bonaria Fois, president of Digitoonz Spain, commented: “I am proud to announce this new partnership: Drilo and The Gang is a project with a strong connection to its audience, and it represents a commitment to creating high-quality content. With the support of a top-tier creative team led by Andrés Meseguer, along with his collaborators Carmen García and Jesús Mondéjar, and our partners at Maskeline, we are ensuring the creation of a project with exceptional potential both within Spain and internationally.”

Vikas Kumar, CEO and founder of Digitoonz Media & Entertainment, added: “At Digitoonz, we strongly believe in the power of IPs that combine authenticity, core values, and a long-term vision. Drilo and The Gang embodies all of these qualities: a brand with a rich legacy, a deep connection with its audience, and extraordinary potential for global expansion. We are proud to be a part of this project and to continue supporting content that both inspires and entertains.”

Meseguer, author and composer of Drilo and The Gang, said: “These have been 20 years of hard work, perseverance, and sacrifice, culminating in this important collaboration agreement. We’re embarking on a new chapter with the best possible partners by our side. We share the mission of conveying values through music and our characters, and this step marks a milestone in our journey, as well as an opportunity to bring Drilo and The Gang to an international stage—always staying true to our educational and approachable essence.”

Fina Martínez, founding partner and producer at Maskeline, added: “When I first discovered the project, I immediately believed in the brand and its international potential. It’s an inspirational initiative for new generations. Today, at Maskeline, we’re thrilled to begin this journey alongside our partners Digitoonz and Andrés Meseguer.”
