It\u2019s a wonderful example of how Welsh-language content can spark imagination and connection, both locally and globally.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Each episode focuses on a different aspect of the natural world\u2014from flowers and seeds to insects, garden creatures and elements like rain and sunshine\u2014with the aim of inspiring children to appreciate the beauty and importance of nature close to home.<\/p>\n<p><em>Egin Bach<\/em> is created by the Cardiff-based animation studio Bumpybox and has been supported by the Welsh government via Creative Wales and received investment from S4C\u2019s Commercial Content Fund.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re absolutely thrilled to see <em>Egin Bach<\/em> premiere on S4C, and we hope it will inspire a new generation of Welsh children to explore the outdoors,\u201d said Sam Wright, producer and director at Bumpybox. \u201cWe\u2019re incredibly grateful to Sioned and the team at S4C for their support in bringing the series to life. As a Wales-based company, collaborating with S4C has long been one of our ambitions. While we\u2019ve created Welsh-language content before, S4C truly represents the heart of Welsh storytelling.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019d also like to thank ITV, who will broadcast <em>Tiny Buds<\/em>, the English-language version, following its S4C premiere, as well as the teams at Creative Wales and S4C International for their invaluable support in making the project a reality. <em>Egin Bach<\/em> is a particularly meaningful project for us, as it\u2019s an evolution of the idea that first brought our team together nearly 15 years ago.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Claire Urquhart, head of S4C\u2019s Commercial Content Fund, commented, \u201cIt\u2019s great to help <em>Egin Bach<\/em> get off the ground. This investment will allow Bumpybox to export this hopeful, homegrown animation to channels and children around the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBumpybox has created some amazing work in recent years, from working on the award-winning feature film <em>Kensuke\u2019s Kingdom<\/em> to developing 3D pet triceratops for <em>My Petsaurus<\/em> for CBeebies and much more,\u201d added Joedi Langley, interim head of Creative Wales. \u201cI am thrilled that, with funding support from Creative Wales, the team has been able to develop the concept then access resources needed to create this wonderful animated series for children that\u2019s developed in both Welsh and English, and I wish them every success in the next exciting chapter of their journey.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Welsh-language kids\u2019 series Egin Bach, titled Tiny Buds in English, is set to premiere on S4C, S4C Clic and BBC iPlayer on October 21.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1412,"featured_media":30723,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[3817,4846,11571,7539,9560,11572,3801,11573,9562,11574,11575],"class_list":["post-30722","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-bbc-iplayer","tag-bumpybox","tag-claire-urquhart","tag-creative-wales","tag-egin-bach","tag-joedi-langley","tag-s4c","tag-s4c-clic","tag-sam-wright","tag-sioned-geraint","tag-tiny-buds","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Welsh-Language Kids\u2019 Series Coming to S4C &amp;
