MIPJunior Spotlight: Bejuba! Entertainment

CANNES: An animal-loving explorer who lives with her scientist mother is the central character in Flora of the Forest, on offer from Bejuba! Entertainment.

“We are looking for co-pro partners and presales for this luscious preschool series,” says Emilie Pasquet, the company’s director of sales. Bejuba! is also presenting Origanimals, a CGI show meant to teach little ones about themselves and the animal kingdom, as well as the second seasons of Ruff-Ruff, Tweet and Dave and The Hive. “Both series are back and stronger than ever,” says Pasquet of the latter two titles, both of which have half-hour specials, including for Christmas and Halloween.

“The series tell universal stories that will appeal to all kids,” Pasquet says. “They’re aspirational and fun. As some of the series are just delivering, we already have some global deals and other buyers have confirmed their interest.” She adds, “We’ve got some great new properties for sale, and are looking for new shows to grow the catalog and to co-produce.”
