Aardman Int'l has appointed Spiral Int'l as its distribution agency for Latin America in order to extend its presence in the area. Spiral will represent the whole of Aardman's catalogue across free TV, DVD and digital rights in Latin America and will be looking to start securing deals at NATPE 2008, where they will be presenting Aardman's children's show SHAUN THE SHEEP to Latin American buyers for the first time. The hit series, launched in October 2006, has already been sold to 150 countries around the world, including Disney Latin America.
Spiral will also be pre-selling Aardman's much-anticipated fourth Wallace and Gromit special TROUBLE AT' MILL, a half-hour special made for TV and DVD that will be shown on BBC One in 2008.
