FLARE Studios Sdn Bhd, the company behind the production of TYCO (Malaysia's first virtual 3D artist), Fresh Friends and Adventures of Mr Ice animation series, will close an RM8mil contract to produce six episodes of 3D animation for a British channel at the end of this month.
Its chief executive officer Miza Mohamad said work was expected to start next month and last for 18 months. The move will potentially see Flare Studios' work exposed to 24 European Union channels and the rare opportunity for the Flare Studios crew to work with the who's who from DreamWorks SKG, The Walt Disney Company and Hanna-Barbera.
