MIPJunior Spotlight: WDR mediagroup

Production is complete on the live-action adventure series WildWoods, a WDR mediagroup highlight featuring puppets in outdoor locations.

“We’re excited to present the finished episodes, which stand out with an amazing and truly unique look,” says Stefanie Fischer, the head of content at WDR mediagroup. There is also a second season of Gigglebug, which teaches kids to be optimistic and laugh in the face of little mishaps. “This is an important message for kids,” Fischer explains.

In Timmi the Rocketeer, a little boy dreams of going to space, so he builds his own rocket and planets. “Beautifully animated, the series inspires kids to use their imagination and become creative,” Fischer says. “There is one thing these shows have in common: positivity. They all encourage children to have a positive attitude and enjoy life.”

“Our catalog of high-quality kids’ programs has been growing continuously, and we’re trying to provide something for every audience,” adds Fischer.
