1461, TLP and MooMooSheep to launch Kidscast digital platform on June 1.
Executive producer 1461 Productions, plus managing agent Those Licensing People and creative hub MooMooSheep have joined forces for the launch of a new digital platform for children’s content.
Kidscast will go live on June 1, with initial material being uploaded from 1461’s extensive back catalogue.
In addition, 1461 will also be producing new live action/animation for the preschool market from its soundstage at The Studio in North Yorkshire.
MooMooSheep will head up the launch of the channel, as well as contributing to the new material created exclusively for the VOD platform.
Gareth Nichol of Those Licensing People said: “We are delighted to announce the launch of Kidscast – this exciting new channel with a sweet spot that initially will be aimed at the preschool audience, but will in future also reach into Key stage 1 and the older gaming market.
“It’s a fantastic platform for the SPVs we represent along with the back catalogue of 1461.”
Those Licensing People – founded by Russell Dever (pictured) and Ali Dewar four years ago – will be working to be the Kidscast properties into the licensing arena.
