Imira Entertainment and Enne Entertainment Studios have announced that Spanish broadcaster TVE will be a co-production partner for the new 3-D animated series "Escape Hockey."

Imira is handling worldwide sales for the show and will be at Mipcom seeking presales and further co-production partnerships with international broadcasters. Aimed at kids ages 6 to 12 and created by Enne Entertainment, "Escape Hockey" is a blend of comedy and space adventure that tells the story of Dan, who is abducted along with his friends to a prison planet named Plutonium. The only way for him to go back home is to win the great Escape Hockey Tournament, the biggest sporting event in the galaxy.

The series will be produced in two versions, a standard television series and an interactive version, which will feature the innovative gaming format "Watch and Play"—a system that lets the viewer watch the series and play at the same time through mini-games integrated in each chapter. Scenes incorporated in the storyline

will be played out by the viewer. This will be developed with video on-demand, online, interactive TV and games console platforms in mind. These video games will also allow TVE to develop the interactive potential of its Web offering, including skills of socialization and community creation around the series.
