This September we see Pink Kong Studios new show ‘Urban Tails’ being unleashed.
A 26 x 2min episode series that will have young people tuning in. ‘Urban Tails’ airs on the 30th September on RTÉjr.
‘Urban Tails’ is the ultimate Music Show starring Awesome Animals from YOUR city. Each episode is a brand-new music video filled with funny factual character driven content, inspired by the classic Hip-Hop and R’N’B videos of the 1990’s.
The Animal Music Artists ooze attitude and present the viewers with a unique take on Urban Wildlife. Through musical rhyme children find out what life is really like for the creatures living amongst us in our cities. These seriously catchy tunes will stick in your head for days and will have audiences tuning in for their daily musical fix.
“The great thing about Urban Tails is that not only are the kids going to be having a little bop along to it, but you are definitely going to pull in the parents with the nod to hip hop classics as the soundtrack. It’s a really cute animation with a badass (lite) soundtrack!”, says Eimear O’Mahony, RTÉ Executive Producer.
Urban Tails is available for international sales through the distributor Monster Entertainment.
“We’ve never had so much fun doing a series! It’s been amazing to see these cool animal hip-hop tunes written by myself and Leo Crowley come to life on screen. It’s been a dream project, mixing our love for 90’s music and animation in one fun colourful package. Everyone involved poured a lot of love into the project, and we can’t wait for the little ones and their parents to tune in and enjoy this awesome show”, says Aoífe Doyle, Director & Writer at Pink Kong Studios.
The series is supported and funded by RTÉjr, Screen Ireland, Broadcast Authority of Ireland and the Government of Ireland.
