Nickelodeon's "Peter Rabbit" Wins Two Awards At The 2016 Daytime Emmy Awards

New York, London – 3 May 2016
Silvergate Media ("Silvergate"), the international TV production and licensing company focused on pre-school children's entertainment based in New York and London, is thrilled to announce that Peter Rabbit, its 3D Computer-generated imagery animated TV series for pre-schoolers has won two Daytime Emmy awards.
Peter Rabbit won the Outstanding Special Class Animated Program award and also won the Outstanding Individual Achievement in Animation award (Storyboard Artist, Benjamin Sanders). Peter Rabbit was also nominated for Outstanding Direction in an Animated Program.
Peter Rabbit was developed by Silvergate and Penguin Books. Beatrix Potter's classic character, Peter Rabbit, returned to the screen in 2013, in a brand new 3D animation series for Nickelodeon (Nick Jr) and the BBC (CBeebies).
When the series launched on Nick Jr in 2013, it hopped to the top of the charts delivering 1.7 million viewers. The premiere also ranks as Nick's highest-rated preschool series premiere since 2011.
Since its debut in 2013, Peter Rabbit has won a number of Emmys, with this new award being its sixth.
Waheed Alli, CEO, Silvergate Media said:
"We're very proud of the production. It's an amazing testament to Paula Rosenthal and the team for bringing back this timeless classic to a new audience."

Nickelodeon UK Unveils Four Brand-New "Short Toons" For May 2016
New month, new toons! Nickelodeon UK and Ireland has unveiled the latest batch of freshly selected Short Toons on their official Nicktoons website and award-winning Nick Play app!
What could be better than even more side-splittingly funny cartoons, online and free whenever you fancy a chuckle?
Covering topics as varied as video games, zombie siblings and port-a-loo-loving Meerkats, developed shorts from the 2014 edition of Nickelodeon's world renowned Global Animated Shorts Programme are currently rolling out on nicktoons.co.uk and Nick Play App. Four of the funniest shorts will be available to view at any one time and, on the Nicktoons site, viewers will be able to show their appreciation for the creative work by selecting the "vote" button.
The current shorts available to view are:
Outsiders by writer Eric Bravo:
In Outsiders, Gerald is annoyed at Miles for dragging him out to the woods for a "dance" emergency. But they have to work together when a Bear attacks! Featuring guest star Will Friedle (Boy Meets World)!
Off the Shelf, created by storyboard artist Robert Iza (Breadwinners):
While working at a warehouse full of everything, overprotective Cat Ashley is driven to the brink of madness after her oblivious best friend Max gets himself fired.
Summer Memories by writer/director Adam Yaniv:
Summer is the time for adventure, and Jason and Ronnie decide to test their parachute in the frontyard. However, after a accident caused by his loyal but questionable friend, Jason has just 24 hours to find his missing tooth!
Buck n' Lou and the Night Crew by independent animators Caitlin Boyle and Tara Helfer:
Two Rat best friends, Buck and Lou, plan a party and pursue a legendary giant hoagie to celebrate the 1 year anniversary of their "Friendaversary"! Featuring guest star Will Friedle (Boy Meets World)!
"The Animated Shorts Program aims to discover, mentor and collaborate with exciting new talent in order to develop the best content for Nickelodeon," said Nina Hahn, Senior Vice President, International Production and Development, Nickelodeon. "These shorts all have the potential to be developed into a longer-form series so it is great to be able to share them with UK fans and, through the vote button, get a sense of what is popular with audiences."
The Global Nickelodeon Animated Shorts Program is open to creatives across the world. The 2016 edition of the initiative will launch in January 2016. More information is available at http://nickanimationstudio.com.
