Imagine That!

This episode is our homage to 'The Princess Bride'. Hongbi and her classmates are reading fairy tales and discussing them afterwards. Boo is unhappy that the giant always plays the part of villain. The kids agree and revise 'Jack and the Beanstalk' and 'Puss and Boots' to their tastes...making them very different stories.

Festival Update!

We were really happy to hear about our acceptance at ANIFEST and the ANNECY ANIMATION FESTIVAL. We are now finishing post on season one and starting recording on Season 2 in just weeks. We have lots of great new stories coming soon.

I Want to be a Star

Hongshi's Kindergarten class is presenting a play and Hongshi is disappointed in his role as butterfly. On the 'Big Day' , Ed gets stage fright. This is a really sweet episode that highlights the personalities of Hongshi's friends. A very sensitive handling of a child sized moral

dilemma.

This is always a great event and is in Hollywood this year at the historic Raleigh Studios.
We have been really happy to get so much genuine interest in our international production in Los Angeles.

The ANNIES!

We all want to thank ASIFA again for the nomination for 'Best Animated Television Program for Children' and for the wonderful reception given us at the ANNIES tonight. To be considered next to a wonderful show like 'Spongebob Squarepants' (the winner) was an honor in itself. It was a great line-up in all categories this year and a great opportunity for an international production like ours to be invited.

ANNIES UPDATE

We are all looking forward to February 5th and the ANNIE Awards. Here is our advert for the program guide.

We're NOMINATED!

We just got the news and are thrilled!

We all really appreciate the recognition that ASIFA has given us with their nomination for 'Best Children's Television Program' to our independent production. We all believe deeply in this international experiment in children's programming and in the theme of creative expression for children that we have tried to weave into every show. We hope this ANNIES recognition will help us reach a wider audience.

The Expensive Antique

This story has so much character and insight into the world of friendship that is unique to kids. Ruiz stars in this film, a real gem. This again is Director Jay Jang's sensitive storyboard. One of our best!

Tooth Fairy

This show is a very original fantasy adventure focusing just on Hongshi. It's amazing how much story you can really tell in 7:20. My part in this was helping out supervising stbd ,record and post. Director Jay Jang storyboarded this one himself.

Cloud Bread Creations

Here is some of the super cute product Development that our Producer Annie Oh has been making in her spare time (HOW?!?)
So much fun, we'll be showing lots more soon.

Hongshi's 'Little Brother'

Hongshi's 'Little Brother' from woody yocum on Vimeo.

Some of our best episodes revolve around small family events. In this case the Cat family is taking care of a baby for a few days. Hongshi's character flows so naturally in this story that it is a really refreshing show. Director Jay Jang's approach on the characters is right on the mark.

MainTitles (Korean Version)

Cloud Bread Main Titles (Korean) from woody yocum on Vimeo.

Here's the Korean language version of our MainTitle as airing on KBS. We think its has caught the feeling of the show wonderfully and the response has been fnatastic. We are in the process of making the English language version now....more soon

30 second Promo (Korean Language version)

This is the super cute 30 second spot that KBS is running for Cloudbread. We are just doing the english version now.

Hongshi's Bank Book

This episode is a nice example of of a story that is entirely about our character relationships and one in which Cloud Bread plays only a minor role. The ability of flight that Cloud Bread gives our characters is used mostly as an opportunity
for situations that make for good character driven stories. This has been Director Jay Jang's priority from the beginning.The really nice performance that Director Wu in Carloon has gotten with the characters is what makes this episode focusing on Hongbi and Honshi's relationship work.
