UYoung and Sutikki, the kids\u2019 and family division of Bento Box Entertainment, have entered into a multi-faceted commercial partnership for the preschool series Moon and Me<\/em> from Andrew Davenport\u2019s Foundling Bird.<\/p>\n

Under the agreement, UYoung will manage the\u00a0distribution of Moon and Me<\/em> in mainland China and several other local territories, as well as oversee content reversioning. UYoung will also act as the brand\u2019s master licensee and agent in the region.<\/p>\n

In addition to licensing third parties in China to create branded merchandise based on Moon and Me<\/em>, UYoung will itself manufacture select products and work in partnership with the brand\u2019s global licensees Hasbro and Scholastic. The companies expect the property to launch in China in 2019. The deal also continues UYoung\u2019s relationship with Davenport, as the company currently manages his property In the Night Garden<\/em> and has been building the brand in China for close to a decade.<\/p>\n

Moon and Me<\/em> will premiere on BBC\u2019s CBeebies in the U.K. in 2018. It is being produced by Sutikki and Foundling Bird, with Sutikki overseeing global distribution and merchandise licensing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Clara Yang, the VP of UYoung, said: \u201cWe are big fans of Andrew\u2019s work. His shows are extremely popular with Chinese children so we are delighted to be working with him again on Moon and Me <\/em>and have high hopes for his latest ambitious project, which we think will be very popular in China.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re tremendously excited to enter into a relationship with UYoung for \u2028Moon and Me<\/em>,\u201d said Andrew Kerr, co-founder of Sutikki. \u201cThis is a key regional partnership and it is particularly pleasing to be working with a company of UYoung\u2019s stature so early in the life of the Moon and Me <\/em>brand.\u201d<\/p>\n

At MIPCOM, UYoung will present P. King Duckling<\/em>, about a friendly yet hapless duck who, along with his friends Wombat and Chumpkins, comes up with creative and funny ways to overcome challenges. The comedy series targets preschoolers. \u201cP. King Duckling<\/em> is the very first Chinese animation to air in the U.S.,\u201d said Yang. \u201cThe colorful animation features a global backdrop and inspires universal themes such as positive thinking and curiosity and, most importantly, the show encourages the young audience to be themselves. Season two of P. King Duckling<\/em> has already been greenlit, along with a collection of short-form videos.\u201d<\/p>\n

UYoung has a development slate that includes another animated preschool program, a girl-based animated action-hero show and a family-friendly mixed-media animated series.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
