Aardman has listed its catalogue of premium animated content on Vuulr Marketplace, available for licensing with global rights. Aardman is also launching a ‘Branded Sales Platform’ with Vuulr to provide buyers around the globe the opportunity to browse catalogue, watch trailers and screeners on-demand, check rights availability, and place licensing offers all on a single platform.
“The Vuulr platform is a great way for us to showcase Aardman’s content and ensure we are maximising every opportunity for the brands we represent. We want to make it easier for platforms who are unable to send representatives to markets, or for those without dedicated kids and family buyers, to access our content around the globe,” said Aardman distribution director Alison Taylor.
“We are delighted to have been chosen by Aardman to present their catalog of their iconic, well-loved and award-winning animation. We look forward to bringing Aardman’s award winning characters to acquisitions teams globally,” said Vuulr CEO Ian McKee.
New Aardman releases, library shows and portfolio of third-party properties are listed on the marketplace, including Number Blocks, Happy the Hoglet, and our first in-house CGI series, Lloyd of the Flies. Other titles listed on Vuulr include popular classics like the much-loved Academy Award winning Wallace and Gromit: The Wrong Trousers; multi award winning Shaun the Sheep series and BAFTA winner Timmy Time.
All 8,000 registered buyers on Vuulr will be able to login to Aardman’s ‘Branded Sales Platform’ with their Vuulr credentials. New Buyers will only need to do a quick registration to gain full access to the platform.
