Cartoon Network Asia Pacific original Exchange Student Zero was presented on the Asian Animation Summit stage in 2012 and premiered on-air three years later in Australia, where it ranked number-one in its Cartoon Network time slot with kids ages five to 12 in the subscription TV universe. The 13 x 22-minute series was a solid performer elsewhere in Asia Pacific, and a standout hit in Taiwan. Exchange Student Zero was created by Australia’s BES Animation for Cartoon Network Asia Pacific. Thanks in part to connections forged at AAS, this studio-network partnership sparked the creation and production of another series called Monster Beach, which debuted earlier this year.
