Tales of friendship with Winnie the Pooh

Animated series, 2012

Backstage - ToF, watercolor transition research



A live-action narrator reads a "magic book" that brings Winnie The Pooh's animated character to life: in doing so, he tells the adventures of the 100 Acre Wood by taking part in them.

Robert Webb narrates this brand new series for Disney Junior as we join Winnie The Pooh and his friends on their latest adventures.
Set deep in the 100 Acre Wood, we follow Winnie The Pooh, Tigger, Piglet, Christopher Robin, Eeyore, Rabbit, Owl, Kanga and Roo in this 18-part series based upon whole new stories from Disney.
Robert also sings the "Bedtime Song" which was a specially created sequence for the Disney Junior Channel.

Shot fully against green screen, the virtual world of 100 Acre Wood was created by Bait while Maga Animation in Italy took care of the book's motion graphics animation. All post production facilities were supplied by Gorilla.
Boomerang created five versions of the series for Disney territories across Europe - UK, Germany, Italy, Spain and Portugal - with international distribution planned throughout the globe.
