We have built an excellent relationship with the team at Technicolor during our collaboration on Penguins of Madagascar. They have developed a world-class CGI production studio and animation team with an established competence that dovetails nicely and efficiently into our production pipeline. We believe Kung Fu Panda both strengthens and enhances our production relationship with Nickelodeon. With this show, we’re looking to continue the growth of our team and infrastructure
