Animated Barack Obama Hires Hollywood Agent to Boost his Career in Global Show-Biz

 

KIEV, Ukraine, December 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Mupotoon LLC, partner of a Ukrainian company CFC Consulting, the makers of the animated series Barack Obama Superstar: The Secret of the Nobel Peace Prize, have signed a deal with the Hollywood based producers representation firm Ostrow and Company. The newly formed collaboration hopes to attract to the animated series the interest of US and global TV networks. The two companies aim to bring the Ukrainian response to The Simpsons and Southpark to the screens of millions of viewers worldwide.

Ostrow and Company, the leading producers representation firm specializing in finding and negotiating distribution and licensing deals for independent feature films and documentaries, has successfully placed films for more than a decade in all platforms both domestically and internationally.

CFC Consulting, specialist in strategic communications and global entertainment PR, released the first episodes of the animated film about Barack Obama in April 2009. Inspired by the unprecedented growth of Barack Obama's global popularity, CFC Consulting came up with an idea to combine chart-topping MUsic, POlitical humour and animation in a new hip format of carTOONs - MUPOTOONS.

The executives of Ostrow and Company showed interest in teaming up with CFC Consulting after the Ukrainian company held a pre-release screening of Barack Obama Superstar in New York in May 2009.

"At Ostrow and Company we receive hundreds of submissions every month and we are extremely selective when it comes to choosing the products we want to represent. But all members of our team were so excited when we first saw Barack Obama Superstar, that we haven't hesitated at all and immediately offered CFC Consulting our partnership", said Page Ostrow, the company's president and industry veteran, about her first impressions from the side-splitting Ukrainian series.

Recently Page Ostrow introduced MUPOTOON at the American Film Market which took place in LA in November.

"I presented MUPOTOON to approximately 50 production-distribution companies and owners of popular TV channels, and absolutely everybody liked the idea. Combining animation with political humor and pop music is a win-win strategy", added Ms Ostrow.

"We have big plans for our cooperation with Ostrow & Company," - said Yuriy Sak, CFC Creative Director.

Gennadiy Kurochka, Managing Partner of CFC Consulting, noted: "Very soon MUPOTOON will reveal to the world the real story of Barack Obama being awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace".
