WildBrain has been appointed by Bromelia to manage the brand’s popular English-language YouTube channels and to launch season one of the new Lottie Dottie Chicken YouTube miniseries in the US and UK, with a focus on increasing visibility for the brand among English-speaking audiences.
“Lottie Dottie Chicken is a Brazilian success story, and we’re delighted to help drive its future growth with English-speaking audiences,” said Michael Carroll, Business Development Manager, WildBrain. “WildBrain has proven experience managing and growing English YouTube channels on behalf of international brands, and we’re confident we can deliver the same great content that Brazilian children love to audiences in the US and UK, too.”
Aimed at children ages six months to five-years-old, Lottie Dottie Chicken is a popular online brand. Since launching on YouTube in 2006, the brand has amassed more than 20.4 million subscribers across its 10 language channels and in May 2018, it garnered more than 420 million monthly views across all of its channels. In February 2014, Lottie Dottie Chicken’s Portuguese channel, Galinha Pintadinha, surpassed 1 billion views and in April 2018, the channel was recognized as the largest “kids’ entertainment and animation” content creator in Brazil.
“This agreement with WildBrain is exactly the right strategic move for us,” said Juliano Prado, producer, and co-creator of Lottie Dottie Chicken. “As digital-savvy experts and leaders in the kids’ YouTube space, they are exactly the right team for us to work with as we look to expand the international reach of our beloved blue chicken, Lottie Dottie.”
Created by Juliano Prado and Marcos Luporini, Lottie Dottie Chicken began as a music project but has since grown exponentially. In addition to its significant presence on YouTube, the brand has also seen many partnerships and record sales numbers, including hundreds of licensing agreements and an estimated 2.5 million DVDs.
Lottie Dottie Chicken’s Portuguese new series, Galinha Pintadinha Mini, provides its young audiences with original and educational content, in addition to the songs. Overall, the brand has garnered more than 18 billion views across channels in Brazil and worldwide.
WildBrain is an industry leader in the management and creation of preschool and children’s entertainment content on platforms such as YouTube, Amazon Video Direct, and others.
