Vince Commisso, co-founding partner, president and CEO of 9 Story Media Group, has joined the roster of the TV Kids Summer Festival as a keynote speaker.<\/p>\n

The TV Kids Summer Festival, which is being held from June 7 to 10, will explore the challenges and opportunities facing the children\u2019s content community today. The event, which is free to attend, will be streamed live and available on-demand on TVKidsFestival.com<\/a>. (Missed our winter edition? Catch up on all the sessions here<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

9 Story Media Group is one of the industry\u2019s leading creators, producers and distributors of top-quality content for young audiences around the world. With facilities in Toronto, New York, Dublin and Manchester, the 9 Story family of companies has produced over 2,800 episodes of best-in-class kids\u2019 and family programming.<\/p>\n

Commisso began his career in 1992 at Nelvana, where he rose through the ranks to become supervising producer, garnering one Emmy and two Gemini nominations. In 2002, he co-founded 9 Story Entertainment, an animation company that would utilize cutting-edge technologies to develop and produce compelling animated children\u2019s content with international appeal. Since earning an Emmy Award for the company\u2019s very first show, Peep and the Big Wide World<\/em>, the 9 Story family of companies has gone on to earn countless other accolades, including fourteen Emmy Awards and two Oscar nominations.<\/p>\n

During his keynote, Commisso will discuss 9 Story Media Group\u2019s strategy for building brands, portraying a wide variety of characters so that all children can see themselves in the shows they watch, the value of curricular-driven\/educational programming before and since the outbreak of the pandemic, Karma\u2019s World<\/em> and the collaboration with Ludacris, other new shows and upcoming projects, lessons learned from running 9 Story during the pandemic, and opportunities for growth in the next 12 to 24 months.<\/p>\n

Commisso joins previously announced TV Kids Summer Festival speakers Sean Clarke, managing director of Aardman, and Tom McGillis and Jennifer Pertsch, creators of Total Drama Island<\/em>, who will be joined by CAKE\u2019s Ed Galton for a special session looking at the success of the franchise.<\/p>\n
