Animation studio signs distribution agreement with FunMobility.
UK-based ZAC Toons has delved deeper into the US market with direct-to-consumer channel FunMobility.
The company has already had some success with its content on US television - its Mr Patel cartoon series, consisting of two minute episodes, is licensed by G4TV which is broadcast on the Comcast platform to 60 million US homes.
The ten episodes were broadcast on G4TV’s Late Night Peepshow throughout December 2006 and January this year with the channel having the rights to rebroadcast through 2007 and 2008.
Troy Zafer, co-founder and managing director of ZAC Toons, said: “This deal represents an important step for us. We have already secured strong distribution channels across Europe and strengthening our existing presence in the US is critical to our long term distribution plans."
