Essentially European
ghostfeather is proud to have been selected by Catalan production company Essential Minds as UK production consultants for the bi-lingual children's TV show Ki-Kids.The companies are working together to create the special-effect laden pilot for a proposed series based upon the already extremely popular website (www.ki-kids.com), part of which is to be shot on location in Powys Castle, Wales.
The series & site are educational, and are biased neither towards English or Spanish speakers. The producers hope that a high production value and cross-cultural relevance will make it a popular learning tool in both English & Spanish-speaking countries...
Safety First!
In association with Innocom (Innovative Communications), St Ives-based virtual publisher, ghostfeather is currently in pre-production on an interactive DVD intended for distribution to GCSE schools & A level colleges nationwide.
The proposed DVD is part of a Bristol University-led drive intended to teach young scientists safe practice in laboratory environments, and is described by its authors as "exceedingly dark humour laced with common-sense; imagine the Simpsons doing Open University".
