WULFIE, children’s animation series, target age 6-11; 52 x 11 min eps
WULFIE, a series based on stories I created for my daughter and that I presented with Monster Entertainment at Cartoon Forum on September 24th is gearing up for another French sortie. He's off to Cannes. To Mipcom, no less, to continue the charm offensive!
Wulfie has also just launched his own Facebook page - Wulfie From Lupislandia - because he was so excited by all the attention he got at Cartoon Forum 2014.
Libby is being very patient with him but checking the posts and watching what he writes about her, about her friends and her world. Meanwhile I've started writing the first of a series of Wulfie books for the same age group.
And we are proud of him. He's our rapscallion, Wulfie - insatiably curious and irrepressible - and his feisty best friend, Libby has a full time job trying to contain him. The stories are all about life as a ten year-old, trying to juggle horrible homework, irritating teachers, annoying step-brother etc but with Wulfie diving in to try and fix things/ make them better/ more fun and always making things a hundred times worse/ more complicated and more fun. In the end. We presented at 11am on the first day of Cartoon Forum. In the Purple Room, which seemed like a good omen. We wore purple ears and tails - and I actually enjoyed the tail swishing against my legs! Pictures are here: Wulfie Presentation. Feedback was excellent and will be followed up at Mipcom.
