Domestic Television Distribution and developed by Phil Gurin behind such shows as Singing Bee and Your Chance to Dance.

And on a personal note … Two extraordinarily different kinds of meetings yesterday on the floor of the Palais here at MIPCOM, demonstrated to me the very essence why people gather in Cannes for this event not once, but twice annually.  The first with children’s shows producers Three Stones Media who told me about their newest project, RastaMouse.  A stop-frame animation project about a Rasta speaking, music playing, lessons learning mouse.  Now I’ve seen a lot of pitches in my time – some great, some not so great – but this one from the show creators was different because of the sheer joy and bubbling enthusiasm these two producers took in talking about their project.  No flip charts, no powerpoint, no razzle dazzle.  The difference is hearing the story directly from the creators and these two shared their story so delightfully, it’s hard not to rise to become sold on it.  Tho the actually selling is left to the distributor down the hall.   …  From there, it was a quick walk over to the Asian Pavilion for an entirely different kind of meeting with Kamil Othman, the VP of Creative Industry Strategy & Policy for the Malaysian government-run MDeC (Multimedia Development Corporation).  He told me about his country of 28 million people, and that their children like to watch Disney, Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network, as well as their locally produced shows.  But for years, MDeC and the local producers of shows tried to produce programming that would appeal not just domestically, but internationally and poured millions into those productions to no avail. Each time they found their local shows were too, well, local.  And then they began pouring money into the development of the shows rather than just the production end, and found with stunningly beautiful 3D animation, that included a little influence from the East and a dash of things they particularly liked from the West, they were able to create a recipe for a kids program that did appeal internationally.  They are here at MIPCOM both selling those projects as well as setting up co-production partnerships with companies from around the world. Two very different sellers of content, both infectiously enthusiastic.  This is why I come to Cannes. 

A CYNOPSIS MESSAGE FROM ION
