MIPTV Spotlight: Cyber Group Studios

The comedy Press Start!, on offer from Cyber Group Studios, is based on a best-selling book series of the same name.

The series follows Sunny Zaki and Rue on their adventure inside a video game with their favorite hero, Super Rabbit Boy.

MIPTV will also see the first episodes of Alex Player being showcased. “The series combines 2D animation for the ‘life’ scenes and Unreal Engine for the video games parts, playing with all the video game codes that kids are familiar with,” says Michèle Massonnat, VP of sales and acquisitions. “We are eager to introduce the very first animated series about esports.”

Cyber Group Studios is looking for presales for The McFire Family, following a family of firefighters. “The supercool abilities of these heroes will have 5- to 8-year-olds psyched,” says Massonnat.

Massonnat adds, “All these shows include key ingredients that make them appealing internationally.”
