Pitch:
In a world where Nature is banned, a self-willed, young girl braves the forbidden forest to find her missing mother. Against all she’s been taught, she relies on a mysterious, feral boy who seems to know more about her mother’s fate. Will they succeed in reuniting both of their families and restoring harmony? Or will Nature be destroyed forever?
ZOOks is an entertaining transmedia adventure for an 8+ family audience.
The story of ZOOks is firmly anchored in the magical mystique surrounding both an enfant sauvage and a zoo. The combination of 2D rotoscoping and 3D backgrounds gives ZOOks its unique visual style.
As a multiplatform experience, ZOOks intends to enrich a young audience with a love for and a knowledge of Nature
