ViacomCBS International Studios (VIS) is launching a new kids\u2019 content division, which will be led by Nina Hahn.<\/p>\n
Hahn will now serve as head of VIS Kids in addition to continuing her role as senior VP of production and development at Nickelodeon International. Based in London, she will report to Juan \u201cJC\u201d Acosta, president of ViacomCBS International Studios and ViacomCBS Networks Americas, while still reporting to Jules Borkent, executive VP of kids’ and family at VCNI.<\/p>\n
As head of VIS Kids, Hahn will focus on growing VIS\u2019s kids\u2019 content pipeline and expanding its global footprint. She will lead on sourcing and developing originals within animated, live-action and preschool genres by aligning closely with the studio\u2019s production and development teams across Latin America, the U.K., Spain and Israel. Hahn will collaborate closely with domestic and international counterparts, along with an expanded central team that will include international development and production, sales and distribution.<\/p>\n
The launch of VIS Kids allows for the expansion of the studio’s global kids\u2019 content pipeline, broadening its kids\u2019 content offering to include short- and long-form content that will be produced and sold to third parties, in addition to ViacomCBS brands and platforms.<\/p>\n
Acosta said: \u201cVIS has an existing footprint in the kids’ arena with successful series like Club 57 and Noobees, so we felt it\u2019s time to launch our own kids’ division of ViacomCBS International Studios. Nina has been a driving force behind many of Nickelodeon\u2019s groundbreaking and award-winning series across the globe, and I am confident she will build on VIS\u2019 momentum at the helm of VIS Kids.\u201d<\/p>\n
Hahn added: \u201cI\u2019m honored to be heading up VIS Kids and plan to establish deep, diverse and inclusive roots in kids’ content. The launch of VIS Kids furthers our studio\u2019s model of creating specialized divisions with central leadership, to ensure we can take full advantage of strategic opportunities that support VIS\u2019 continued advancement.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
