Telescreen Signs Global Distribution Rights for ‘Rudolf’

Dutch brand management business Telescreen, part of m4e, has inked a worldwide (excluding Germany, French-speaking Europe and Denmark) distribution deal with German production company JEP Animation for the new animated series Rudolf (52×3). The deal covers broadcasting, home entertainment, merchandising, internet, mobile phone, audio and book publishing rights. Delivery of the first episodes is planned for fall 2009 and the complete production by the end of summer 2010.

The animation series is about a door-to-door salesman who meets weird customers in wild neighborhoods. He is blind to the fact that he is offering the wrong item to the wrong customer and each encounter escalates into slapstick mayhem.
