London-based Eye Present has signed on to co-produce the animated series Best and Bester<\/em> with Finland’s Gigglebug Entertainment.<\/p>\n

Best and Bester<\/em> is a buddy comedy about two characters who can transform themselves into whatever they want once a day. The 78×7-minute show is being accompanied by an online chat game that is already in beta testing on Facebook’s new Messenger gaming platform.<\/p>\n

Genevieve Dexter, the CEO of Eye Present, commented: \u201cHaving concentrated on IP with an established fan base (to date Xephos & Honeydew<\/em>, The Yogscast<\/em> and Flix<\/em> by Tomi Ungerer), we were attracted to this original property at Cartoon Forum by the concept\u2019s ability to get kids involved with comparing their favorite things across a range of different media. We were also very impressed with Gigglebug\u2019s infectious sense of humor and ability to tell cross-platform stories.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAs well as having a great track record in financing properties, Eye Present are right at the forefront of producing content for new platforms as well as developing B2C marketing initiatives for their brands,\u201d added Anttu Harlin, the CEO of Gigglebug. \u201cOur mission is to create positive content with an impact. While Best and Bester<\/em> is pure comedy at heart, it also opens kids’ eyes to the endless possibilities that are available to them in this world and celebrates the freedom of opinion.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
