DreamWorks Animation: Developing Preschool Series
Come join a unique conversation featuring the executive producers behind DreamWorks Animation’s two newest preschool series – ‘Not Quite Narwhal’ and ‘Dew Drop Diaries’ (both currently available on Netflix). These two shows were in development and greenlit at the same time, but have had very different paths to become the shows they are today. One was based on a NY Times best-selling children’s book by Jessie Sima, and one was an original idea inspired by the creator’s own children. But despite their distinct differences, both have achieved that distinctive DWA charm and humor. Join us on September 19th to hear from these five talented EPs as we compare and contrast their creative processes, and hear what it takes to make great preschool content for today’s kid audiences.
