Our team takes home “Best Web/App Series — Original” for Zip and the Tiny Sprouts
We are absolutely thrilled to announce that Fade In Studio is officially a Kidscreen Award winner!
At the 2025 Kidscreen Summit in San Diego, our hit animated preschool show, Zip and the Tiny Sprouts, took home the top prize for Best Web/App Series — Original in the Digital–Preschool category. The Kidscreen Awards celebrate the very best in children’s television and digital media globally, and we are incredibly honored to see our work recognized on such a massive stage.
Pushing the Boundaries of Digital-First Animation
Producing Zip and the Tiny Sprouts was the journey of a lifetime. Spanning 52 episodes and packing in 364 minutes of animation, this project allowed us to push the creative envelope and build a true case study for what a high-quality, digital-first series can achieve. Watching this vibrant, imaginative world evolve from early script concepts into a fully realized, award-winning show has been pure magic.
