Throwback Thursday with AAS!

When Indonesia participated in AAS for the first time in 2017, Hellomotion’s Cican was widely regarded as the strongest project in a very impressive debut showcase from the region. The 39 x seven-minute TV concept sparked a lot of interest at AAS, and Hellomotion is currently in negotiations with a co-production partner that was in the audience at the event to get this 2D-animated series off the ground. Cican’s popular publishing franchise has currently rolled out 50 titles of bedtime stories in Indonesia, and merchandise sales for the IP have increased by 50% so far this year. Hellomotion also recently collaborated with Indonesia’s Ministry of Education to create a Cican music clip focused on cultural heritage.
