Nick Jr. USA Acquires Rights To "Wissper"; To Debut In 2016
Original m4e AG Press Release via m4e.de:
m4e signs with Nick Jr. for U.S. Broadcast of "Wissper"
m4e AG has signed a broadcasting deal with Nick Jr. on the new animated series "Wissper" for the United States.
Höhenkirchen/Munich, September 29, 2015: The preschool animation series "Wissper" (52 x 7 minutes) is set to make its debut in the U.S. on the Nick Jr. channel in 2016. Nickelodeon has secured the U.S.-broadcasting rights from German brand management and media company m4e AG, who is co-producing the highly anticipated TV-show with Absolutely Cuckoo, Telegael and Discreet Art Productions as well as BASTEI Media.
The series is being sold internationally by m4e AG, having been commissioned by Channel 5 in the UK for broadcast as part of its award-winning pre-school strand, Milkshake. "Wissper" is the first original commission for Milkshake to be picked up by Nickelodeon in the U.S. since its parent company Viacom Inc. completed its takeover of Channel 5 last year.
"We are very proud that Nick Jr. has picked up 'Wissper' for the U.S. market, and it confirms to us our high expectations for the show. This absolutely marks another significant milestone for establishing this property as a global preschool brand", says Hans Ulrich Stoef, CEO of m4e AG.
"Wissper" is aimed at preschoolers and children. The series concerns a perfectly normal little girl called Wissper, who has a very special talent – she is able to communicate with animals. She is thus in a position to understand their problems and then assist them. Consequently, Wissper the animal whisperer is a wholly natural heroine for young viewers all around the world.
Press Information
The 52 episodes of the CGI-animated TV-series are created by London-based animation studio Absolutely Cuckoo – known for the BBC-hit-series "Waybuloo" – in coproduction with m4e AG, Telegael (Ireland), Discreet Art Productions (India), and the German BASTEI Media GmbH, a subsidiary of publisher Bastei Lübbe AG. Episodes 1-26 will be available by end of 2015, episodes 27-52 by spring 2016. m4e manages the worldwide distribution.

Viacom Unveils Pioneering New Research That Decodes the Difference between Impressions and Engagement

Viacom Unveils Pioneering New Research That Decodes the Difference between Impressions and Engagement
Findings from Study Explored through Dynamic Interactive Exhibition in New York Headquarters;
Yale Center for Customer Insights and Spotify to Partner with Viacom and Study Attention Further
September 29, 2015 12:32 PM Eastern Daylight Time
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Viacom (NASDAQ: VIAB, VIA) today announced the findings of a first-ever Attention Study, which reveals the building blocks of consumer engagement in the economy of attention. Contrary to the conventional view that audiences are awash in distraction, the study reveals consumers feel empowered to choose where to focus and are more able than ever to engage deeply with the brands they love.

The groundbreaking study, led by Viacom's Scratch division, applies the science of attention to the marketing discipline and delivers a powerful approach to creating engagement in a rapidly-evolving marketing environment. Informed by biometric audience analysis, quantitative surveys, and interviews with expert practitioners, the findings will be used with Viacom and its partners to help facilitate deep connections with consumers.
Specifically, the study finds that three-quarters (75%) say their ability to pay attention is getting better or staying constant, 70% feel they are paying the right amount of attention to the things in their lives, and 81% are intentionally limiting the amount of attention they give to various media. Their power allows consumers to dive deeper into what they love with others who share their interest - 76% consider themselves part of a fan community and nearly 2/3 of people say what they remember most they experienced with others.
Scratch's insights on breaking through to real engagement will be brought to life through a dynamic interactive exhibition at Viacom's New York headquarters from September 29-October 8. The experience includes initial biometric research on how different television show genres impact attention; a multitasking test, which neuroscientists say only 2.5% of the population can do effectively; a virtual reality demonstration of fully-immersive Viacom content experiences; examples of fandom expressed in increasingly rich ways; and case studies on breakthrough content and marketing and the link between context and attention.
Viacom's commitment to diving deeper into the attention arena will expand to partnerships with Yale Center for Customer Insights and Spotify. The work with Yale will entail conducting new research surrounding intent, aspiration, and media consumption, while Viacom will collaborate with Spotify to apply advanced insights to user engagement with content and experiences.
"We know that engagement is the apex for content makers and marketers, and applying the science of attention to marketing in this new way allows Viacom to help its partners connect with consumers in more impactful ways," said Anne Hubert, SVP and head of Scratch. "We know our audiences better than anyone in the world, and this Attention Study helps frame the job of marketers, brand builders and content makers in the economy of attention in which we are all operating. We have to move beyond simply counting eyeballs, clicks, ads viewed, and impressions delivered, and begin to value the mark made because of experiences delivered in all the places where consumers engage."
Viacom’s study proves the idea that the quality and type of attention is nuanced, and that collective attention, context and communities of fans are key elements in relationships between brands and consumer relationships.
Other findings from Scratch's Attention Study can be found at http://attention.viacom.com and include:
Collective Attention:
* 76% consider themselves part of a fan community
* Almost 2/3 of Millennials discover new things from their fan community

Viacom Unveils Pioneering New Research That Decodes the Difference between Impressions and Engagement
Findings from Study Explored through Dynamic Interactive Exhibition in New York Headquarters;
Yale Center for Customer Insights and Spotify to Partner with Viacom and Study Attention Further
September 29, 2015 12:32 PM Eastern Daylight Time
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Viacom (NASDAQ: VIAB, VIA) today announced the findings of a first-ever Attention Study, which reveals the building blocks of consumer engagement in the economy of attention. Contrary to the conventional view that audiences are awash in distraction, the study reveals consumers feel empowered to choose where to focus and are more able than ever to engage deeply with the brands they love.

The groundbreaking study, led by Viacom's Scratch division, applies the science of attention to the marketing discipline and delivers a powerful approach to creating engagement in a rapidly-evolving marketing environment. Informed by biometric audience analysis, quantitative surveys, and interviews with expert practitioners, the findings will be used with Viacom and its partners to help facilitate deep connections with consumers.
Specifically, the study finds that three-quarters (75%) say their ability to pay attention is getting better or staying constant, 70% feel they are paying the right amount of attention to the things in their lives, and 81% are intentionally limiting the amount of attention they give to various media. Their power allows consumers to dive deeper into what they love with others who share their interest - 76% consider themselves part of a fan community and nearly 2/3 of people say what they remember most they experienced with others.
Scratch's insights on breaking through to real engagement will be brought to life through a dynamic interactive exhibition at Viacom's New York headquarters from September 29-October 8. The experience includes initial biometric research on how different television show genres impact attention; a multitasking test, which neuroscientists say only 2.5% of the population can do effectively; a virtual reality demonstration of fully-immersive Viacom content experiences; examples of fandom expressed in increasingly rich ways; and case studies on breakthrough content and marketing and the link between context and attention.
Viacom's commitment to diving deeper into the attention arena will expand to partnerships with Yale Center for Customer Insights and Spotify. The work with Yale will entail conducting new research surrounding intent, aspiration, and media consumption, while Viacom will collaborate with Spotify to apply advanced insights to user engagement with content and experiences.
"We know that engagement is the apex for content makers and marketers, and applying the science of attention to marketing in this new way allows Viacom to help its partners connect with consumers in more impactful ways," said Anne Hubert, SVP and head of Scratch. "We know our audiences better than anyone in the world, and this Attention Study helps frame the job of marketers, brand builders and content makers in the economy of attention in which we are all operating. We have to move beyond simply counting eyeballs, clicks, ads viewed, and impressions delivered, and begin to value the mark made because of experiences delivered in all the places where consumers engage."
Viacom’s study proves the idea that the quality and type of attention is nuanced, and that collective attention, context and communities of fans are key elements in relationships between brands and consumer relationships.
Other findings from Scratch's Attention Study can be found at http://attention.viacom.com and include:
Collective Attention:
* 76% consider themselves part of a fan community
* Almost 2/3 of Millennials discover new things from their fan community
* 75% are influenced to watch content because "a lot of people are talking about it"
Deep Connection:
* Almost 50% would give up a week of social media in order to not miss the series finale of their favorite TV show; almost 1/3 would be willing to give up a night's sleep for it
* Nearly 25% have binge-watched their favorite show for eight or more hours
Attention and Distraction:
* 10% or less feel they are spending too little time on phones, emails, smartphone games, and social media
* 20% feel they are paying too little attention to celebrities
* 38% of Millennials said "Seeing someone naked" was distracting, but nearly twice that number said "getting a text message" was distracting
