9 Story Media Group has acquired the live action children’s series Look Kool (16 x 22’), and its French counterpart, C’est Wow, for distribution within the international marketplace. The educational, math-based series targets a 6-9 year old audience and is produced by Apartment 11 Productions for TVOKids and TFO.
“We have a longstanding relationship with Apartment 11, having distributed their popular science-based show Finding Stuff Out,” said 9 Story Media Group MD Natalie Osborne. “We find there is a tremendous appetite for high quality, educational based programming in several territories and we are looking forward to introducing Look Kool to this same audience.”
A zany show about geometry, Look Kool is jam-packed with skits, cartoons, and 3D special effects! Host, Hamza, and his mischievous robot cat show viewers how geometry is in everything all around us, from roller coasters to Frisbees and ice cream cones. In every episode, real kids help Hamza solve a mathematical mystery: “How come bubbles are always round? Why are so many musical instruments made of cylinders? How can you make your bike more aerodynamic?” Who knew math could be so much fun?!
