Live-action Canadian series Holly Hobbie

NEWS BRIEF: Corus Entertainment-owned Aircraft Pictures, the kids and family scripted specialist behind Holly Hobbie, has made a pair of appointments as it looks to expand.

Former Sienna Films exec Irene Ho joins as head of finance and operations while ex-Bell Media staffer Alan Bacchus arrives as director of business affairs. Both posts are new and come after Canadian compatriot Corus acquired a majority stake in Aircraft earlier this year.
