An animated television series inspired by the popular children’s books Eddie’s Lil’ Homies has commenced production in South Australia and Victoria and will air simultaneously on Netflix and National Indigenous Television (NITV).

The new year is set to start with a bang in Australian children’s television, with the much-anticipated horror-comedy series Crazy Fun Park to premiere on January 1, 2023.

The 2021-22 financial year was a bumper year for the ACTF with a total production commitment of more than $8 million and over $1 million spent on development.

Exciting news for young stargazers and budding astronauts – the award-winning animated series Space Nova will be coming back to screens with a second season.

Book adaptations, feature length films and a new live-action comedy series from Little Lunch producers Gristmill are among the projects to be allocated ACTF development funding in 2021/22.
