Curiosity is about to cause some chaos as Mondo TV Group, an Italian production and television distribution company and Magiclume, an Indian 3D animation and VFX studio, join forces to send Zury & Friends, a 3D CGI preschool animated comedy series, on an international distribution romp.
Mondo TV has signed a non-exclusive distribution agreement with Magiclume for Zury & Friends, the studio’s latest 26 episodes of 7-minute. Under the deal, Mondo TV will handle media distribution across selected territories in Western and Eastern Europe, Greater China and the Middle East and North Africa (Mena).
Mondo TV CEO Matteo Corradi shared, “Mondo TV Group is delighted to welcome Zury & Friends in our wide-ranging catalogue. We were looking for a distinctive preschool comedy show, and this series will surely entertain its target audience internationally”.
Set to be a major focus at Mipcom, Zury & Friends follows the unstoppable Zury, whose big ideas have a habit of turning into bigger, gloriously chaotic adventures. The series spins simple ideas into runaway disasters, with Zury and her friends tumbling, giggling and stumbling their way through one misadventure after another. The comedy is built around curiosity, friendship and the reassuring idea that getting things wrong can still lead to a great adventure.
Magiclume founder and creative director Vijay Bhotla stated, “We created Zury & Friends around a simple idea: when curiosity takes over, even the smallest idea can turn into a wonderfully unexpected adventure. Zury and her friends are playful, energetic and wonderfully imperfect, and that is what makes their world so much fun. We are thrilled to partner with Mondo TV to bring this vibrant world to children and families across international markets. Their experience and global reach make them an exciting partner for Zury & Friends, and we can’t wait to see where Zury’s next big idea takes her!”
