Petoskey, Michigan Grad Jeff Sornig Brings Nickelodeon Know-How To Harbor Springs Classroom
Petoskey grad brings Nickelodeon know-how to Blackbird classroom
HARBOR SPRINGS, Mich. — Jennifer Wixson’s first-grade class had some unusual guests on Monday, June 4.
Animated television characters SpongeBob SquarePants, Lincoln Loud and Timmy Turner all stopped by Blackbird Elementary School in the form of cartoonist Jeff Sornig.

Sornig, uncle to Blackbird students Turner and Boden Schultz, demonstrated how to draw popular cartoon characters and talked to the students about his experiences as an artist.
“I always wanted to draw,” Sornig said. “I was always the artsy kid in school.”

Despite a lifelong love of drawing, Sornig has only recently begun pursuing an art career.
After graduating from Petoskey High School in 1988, Sornig joined the Marine Corps. It wasn’t until after his retirement from the Marines in 2012 that Sornig said he “rediscovered the old passion for drawing.”
“I started going to college for illustration and then I got into the Nickelodeon Animation intern program in 2015,” Sornig told the Petoskey News-Review. “I worked at Nick Animation in Burbank for two years.”
During his time as an intern, Sornig worked on the shows Pig Goat Banana Cricket, Pinky Malinky and a new special for Rocko’s Modern Life, "Static Cling".

“It was amazing,” Sornig said. “It’s such a fun, creative environment. Being in California was great.”
Another part of Sornig’s work in Burbank was the “Let’s Draw” community outreach program. Through the pro-social program, Nickelodeon employees visited local schools and talked to kids about animation and drawing.
“We would just go out with the kids to their schools and just encourage them to draw and be creative,” Sornig said. “What we’ll do today is just bring a little bit of Nickelodeon up here to Northern Michigan.”

On Monday, the students excitedly called out the names of their favorite cartoon characters and Sornig quickly sketched them out on the classroom’s whiteboard, with the students trying to follow along with their own drawings.
While sketching, Sornig answered questions from the students, including many slime-related queries.
Student: Have you seen people get slimed?
Sornig: Yes, and actually next weekend I’m taking Turner and Boden and we’re going to the Nickelodeon SlimeFest in Chicago.
Student: Have you ever gotten slimed?
Sornig: I did get to get slimed. It tastes like pudding.
Sornig also offered students an inside look at how their favorite cartoons get made, including the months of hard work that go into creating each episode.
“For the cartoons that you see on TV, there’s a crew of about 100 people that work on that show,” Sornig said. “It takes about six months or longer to make a single episode that you see come on TV.”
Sornig now lives in the Detroit area and is a freelance artist. He said that every child loves to draw and by sharing his own experience with students, “it keeps the creativity going.”
“It inspires the imagination, gets them thinking about options,” Sornig said. “Growing up, you never knew cartoons were an actual job you could do. It kind of gives the kid an idea that ‘Hey, you could actually work in art someday if you wanted to.’”

eOne Unveils Plans for World’s First Peppa Pig World of Play Indoor Attractions from Merlin Entertainments
LONDON: As the growth of Peppa Pig continues to build across the globe, Entertainment One (eOne) and Merlin Entertainments (Merlin) have announced plans for the world’s first ever Peppa Pig World of Play. The standalone indoor attraction will bring to life eOne’s much-loved preschool television property in a series of interactive play areas designed for all the family. The first locations announced are Shanghai’s LC Mall set to open its doors late 2018 and the Grapevine Mills in Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas targeted to open in early 2019.
Additional Peppa Pig World of Play sites have been secured in Beijing in China, as well as Michigan and the New York area in the US, which are also planned to open in 2019.
Peppa Pig World of Play is a unique indoor attraction concept that will give pre-school children an opportunity to step into the exciting world of Peppa Pig in an immersive play environment packed full of family-inclusive activities. With a design concept adaptable to different spaces, children and their families will be immersed in the world of Peppa Pig as they visit ten play areas that will ignite their imaginations. Merlin will build and operate the themed attractions under an exclusive multi-territory licensing agreement with eOne.
“Peppa Pig is loved by children and families across the world and we are thrilled that our partnership with Merlin will create the ultimate, fully-immersive Peppa Pig indoor play experience for her many fans,” said Andrew Carley, EVP Global Licensing, Family & Brands at eOne. “The partnership with Merlin underlines our own long term strategy of building enduring global success for Peppa Pig and these attractions will play an integral role in making it a favourite preschool property for many years to come.”
Mark Fisher, Chief Development Officer at Merlin Entertainments, said: “We are very excited about the opening of the world’s first ever Peppa Pig World of Play in partnership with eOne. Peppa Pig is an exceptionally strong brand, recognised and loved by families around the world, and the global preschool market for location-based entertainment represents a great opportunity for Merlin. The attraction’s flexible design means we are excited about the rollout potential of these attractions, with an initial focus on China and the US.”
Earlier this year, Merlin launched two in-park dedicated brand areas at Gardaland, Italy and Heide Park, Germany as well as Peppa Pig themed accommodation at both Resort Theme Parks, which are proving very popular with guests.
Peppa Pig began in the UK as a five-minute children’s animated TV series that was first broadcast on Channel 5 in 2004. The TV show is now seen globally, including on Nickelodeon and Nick Jr. channels around the world, including in the UK, Ireland and the USA. In China, the beloved television series made a strong broadcast debut in June 2015 on national broadcaster, CCTV and is now available on multiple leading VOD platforms including Youku, IQIYi and Tencent, where the show has accumulated over 45 billion cumulative views.

Nickelodeon and Paramount's Third 'SpongeBob' Movie Gets Title, Release Date [Updated]
Just a few months after reports of a delay, the next installment of SpongeBob SquarePants movies has a new name and a new release date!
ComicBook.com was in attendance at CinemaCon 2018 in Las Vegas when Paramount Animation revealed that the upcoming third SpongeBob SquarePants movie will officially be called The SpongeBob Movie: It's a Wonderful Sponge and is set to open in theaters on Wednesday, July 22, 2020. The film will be the third in the series of SpongeBob SquarePants theatrical releases, with The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie having been released in 2004 and its sequel, The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water, in 2015. SpongeBob TV series writer Tim Hill (Muppets from Space, Garfield 2, Hop, and the first Alvin and the Chipmunks feature) is penning the script and directing the film. Hill has been involved with Spongebob Squarepants from day one, helping to develop the series, and has worked on the series off and on throughout the years.
The presentation also included clips from Wonder Park (due out March 15, 2019) with a live performance of "Wonder," an original song from the film, by Rachel Platten.
Update (6/6): Vincent Waller, the Creative Director on SpongeBob SquarePants, has revealed in a Tweet that SpongeBob SquarePants writer Aaron Springer is working on the story for The SpongeBob Movie: It's a Wonderful Sponge, and that he has heard that SBSP storyboard director Zeus Cervas has been brought on board to help storyboard the film!
Last May development of the third feature-length SpongeBob film was announced with release anticipated in 2019. In December, however, Paramount announced that film -- then being called The SpongeBob Movie -- was being pushed back a year. Now it looks like things are back on track. The studio even shared a first look at the movie's logo during their presentation at CinemaCon. You can check that out above!
Both The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie and The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water were box office successes for the studio, bringing in a combined $465.3 million on a budget of $104 million between the two films.
Since its launch in July 1999, SpongeBob SquarePants has emerged as a pop culture phenomenon. The series has been the most-watched animated program with kids 2-11 for more than 15 consecutive years, and over the past several years, it has averaged more than 100,000,000 total viewers every quarter across all Nickelodeon networks. SpongeBob SquarePants is the most widely distributed property in Viacom International Media Networks history, seen in more than 208 countries and territories and translated in 55+ languages. The Paramount Pictures feature film The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water premiered Feb. 6, 2015, landing at #1 opening weekend. The character-driven cartoon chronicles the nautical and sometimes nonsensical adventures of SpongeBob, an incurably optimistic and earnest sea sponge, and his undersea friends in the fictional underwater city of Bikini Bottom. Among those friends are SpongeBob's best friend, a pink starfish named Patrick Star, his neighbor and co-worker octopus Squidward Tentacles, and Sandy Cheeks, a squirrel from Texas.
SpongeBob SquarePants has been renewed through to at least the show's twelfth season, will be celebrating its 20th anniversary in 2019, and also has its own critically acclaimed Broadway show.
Paramount also revealed first-looks at the logos of their upcoming live-action Dora the Explorer and Are You Afraid of the Dark? movies at CinemaCon 2018!
