Jetpack to shop YouTube property Spookiz

Spookiz is aimed at six- to 11-year-olds

NEWS BRIEF: UK-based Jetpack Distribution has picked up the international rights to a non-verbal slapstick comedy show that originated on YouTube.

Jetpack will distribute three seasons (75×2’30”), plus a feature-length episode, of Keyring Co’s 3D animated series Spookiz, and its spin-off, Cookie (25×2’30”). Targeting 6-11s, Spookiz is set at night in a school, when all the kids are gone and the place is empty, and monsters creep out of their hideouts.
