9 Story Media Group recently announced that it has licensed the hit animated comedy series Get Ace (52 x 11’) to Boing (France), part of Turner Kids’ portfolio in France, made of 3 channels: Boing, Boomerang and Cartoon Network.
The series is produced by Australia’s Galaxy Pop for Network TEN’s ELEVEN and has recently been greenlit for a second season having topped the ratings with its first season broadcast. Along with Boing (France), the first series has been sold to ABC (Australia), TVNZ (New Zealand), TVE (Spain), E Junior (UAE) and Zoom (Israel).
Late last year, Get Ace won first prize for Best Animation at the Australian Writers Guild Awards, Best Music for Children’s Television at the Screen Music Awards and was most recently nominated for Best Children’s Television Series at the Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Arts Awards.
The series follows the adventures of hapless, geek Ace McDougal who, after being accidentally fitted with a pair of hi-tech super-spy braces, finds himself thrown into a world of espionage and adventure.
Galaxy Pop is one of Australia’s fastest growing film and television production companies. The prod co is helmed by writing, producing, directing team Gian Christian and Dina McPherson with a shared vision to create and produce original, adventurous, imaginative film and television for audiences around the world.
