India’s Toonz Media Group is showcasing a new family animated film Minibots at the American Film Market (AFM). Toonz describes the film as having a “vibrant and fast-paced world” that will appeal to a wide audience, including both children and adults.

 

During AFM in Las Vegas this week, a teaser trailer for the project will be unveiled. Here are the key details about Minibots:

Directed by Tony Bancroft, known for his work on Disney’s Mulan, with a script by Michael Ferris (Terminator 3: Rise of Machines, Rugrats). Bancroft, a seasoned animator and director, has worked on various projects recently including executive producing Mosley and voice directing Red Shoes and the Seven Dwarfs. The film’s logline reads: “Minibots follows three young geniuses at a summer robotics camp. Their creation of sentient mini robots leads to chaos and heartwarming moments as they race against time to protect their playful but troublemaking Minibots from a powerful tech company determined to take control of these remarkable inventions.”

Toonz Media Group is collaborating with U.K.’s Evolutionary Films and American company Mojo Global Arts for the production of Minibots.

John Adams of Evolutionary Films commented: “Minibots is a story that connects with the entire family. On the surface it is about clever kids who code robots, but the real message is one of collaboration, self-expression and discovery. The film is an action-packed adventure in a unique, high-tech world but it retains a universal relatability that will give it global appeal.”
