Press Release from Turner Broadcasting

Turner Broadcasting has signed a multi-territory deal to bring exciting new 3D animated series, Jelly Jamm, to its network in over 130 countries across EMEA.  Co-produced by Spanish indies Vodka Capital, 737 Shaker and RTVE (Radio Television Española), the series is the latest brainchild of Victor M. Lopez and David Cantolla, veterans of the Spanish animation industry and co-founders of Vodka Capital.

Turner Broadcasting has acquired the 52x11’ nursery series, which it plans to air on Boomerang.  It is the broadcaster’s first pan-regional acquisition from a Spanish indie, in line with Turner’s commitment to acquire content more widely across EMEA.

Aimed at four to six year-olds, Jelly Jamm is set on a magical planet called Jammbo, the origin of all music in the universe.  A comedy series which celebrates music and friendship, Jelly Jamm follows the adventures of five friends who live on Jammbo and the fun times they have with games, music and dance.  Bello and his friends Rita, Goomo, Mina and Ongo are the quintet of cute characters who, through their comedic adventures, learn to live in harmony with each other on the wonderful musical planet Jammbo.

Cecilia Persson, Vice President of Acquisitions says: “Jelly Jamm is a lovely series on so many levels.  Characters which immediately inspire, great musical resonance and a beautifully immersive setting.  The skilled touch of the expert team behind Jelly Jamm is acutely evident throughout and it’s a real winner.”

Steven J. Posner, co-Founder and Managing Partner at Vodka Capital comments: “From day one, our aspiration has been to transform Jelly Jamm into highly recognizable International Kids Entertainment Brand.  It’s a tremendous opportunity to have Turner Broadcasting on board and it’s very exciting to have such a great partner to help us turn our dream into a reality.”
