Amuse Animation has sold a slate of animation series to TV Azteca and Guest Choice for Latin America, RTVC in the Canaries, and MBC for the Middle East and North Africa. The deals signal Amuse’s definitive move into distributing content starring the studio’s animated preschool heroes to mainstream broadcast channels.“We’re thrilled to be working with such strong broadcast partners in Latin America, Canaries, Middle East and North Africa,” Jiella Esmat, Chief Revenue Officer, Amuse Animation said. “These partnerships represent an important step in our plans to scale off YouTube and create content that works for broadcast as well as VOD platforms.”

Top Mexican network TV Azteca acquired the rights for Mexico, Honduras and Guatemala to six of Amuses’ flagship shows, "Shark Academy," "Miliki Family," "RoboFuse," "AnimaCars," "Increditales," and "Plum the Super Witch." Summing up to 540 episodes, the deal includes Free TV rights for all series and FVOD and AVOD rights for a selection of episodes.
