MIPJunior Spotlight: WildBrain

WildBrain’s Badjelly is based on the kids’ book Badjelly the Witch: A Fairy Story by comedian Spike Milligan.

“The series delivers a fresh take while preserving the humor, adventure and quirky characters from the original tale,” says Katie Wilson, VP of global sales and acquisitions.

Secrets at Red Rocks, adapted from Rachael King’s award-winning novel, follows 12-year-old Jake as he is drawn into a world of mythical creatures and adventure. When he finds a sealskin hidden on the rocky shores of his father’s seaside home in Wellington, New Zealand, unexpected dangers are unleashed, and Jake is called upon to protect his family. The title is set to deliver by the end of this year.

Storybooth, aimed at tweens, teens and families, features stories submitted by real kids.

“Across animation and live action, we’ve got something for everyone, no matter where or how kids are discovering content,” Wilson notes.
