The Adventures of Paddington
StudioCanal
It started with a bear...
Blue Zoo Animation Studio partnered with StudioCanal to bring the beloved Paddington Bear to television in "The Adventures of Paddington." This project presented the exciting challenge of adapting Michael Bond's iconic character for a new generation of preschool viewers while maintaining his timeless charm and values.
Our team developed a fresh, vibrant 3D animation style that captures Paddington's warmth and personality. We focused on creating expressive character animations to convey Paddington's innocence and enthusiasm, as well as detailed environments that bring modern-day London to life. The series blends humour, heart, and gentle life lessons, staying true to the spirit of the original stories.
Premiering in 2020, "The Adventures of Paddington" has become a global success, airing in over 150 territories. The show has received critical acclaim, winning multiple awards including two Emmys. This project showcases Blue Zoo's ability to revitalize classic characters for contemporary audiences while preserving their essential qualities, creating animation that resonates with both children and adults alike.
