Bonjour Musique! Hello Music Goes to FRANCE

Hello Music and LICKs5D interactive cinema spectacular is set to take children’s entertainment by storm!
Hello Music Land is an amazing cinema spectacular show created by LICKs5D Productions that combines 3D interactive animation and live performance to create a world full of music, magic, comedy and mayhem.
Original, energetic and highly entertaining, it’s like nothing you, or the kids, have ever seen! After a sell-out season in Singapore, Malaysia and Australia LICKs5D is set for a highly anticipated second season in Australia touring throughout 2009. In addition to WOW-ing crowds across the South Pacific interest is now growing in Europe and the US – LICKs5D is set to become a global phenomenon!
Kids are invited to join in the performance by riding an interactive animated rainbow, play the world’s biggest game of snap and turn the pages of a movie screen sized storybook!
Host Quickles, and his band of merry instruments, Dimmie Drum, Penny Piano and Vinnie Violin, lead the magical, musical, multi-dimensional experience as they travel between the animated screen and live stage searching for Vinnie Violin’s lost BowBow. A spectacular animated “Big Finale” promises to have kids and parents singing and dancing in the aisles.
Heralded as a “phenomenal fusion of cinema and live entertainment,” Hello Music Land is children’s entertainment at its most innovative and exciting. It’s the perfect treat for kids and families aged 2-8 years.
Developed by award-winning children’s entertainment team, Hello Music Land is produced by founder Karen Kim and directed by multi-talented AFI winner, Stephen Johnson (Yolngu Boy.)
BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE: LICKs5D is just one of Hello Music’s creative projects aimed to introduce children to the wonderful world of music…
Creative Director Karen Kim has also been busy producing a new animation TV series, set to take part in Mipcom, Cannes October 2008. In conjunction with a rapidly expanding international fan base and recent support from Film Victoria, it is no wonder suspense is building to see what Hello Music’s next move will be!
Already set to launch in November 2008 is the first DVD/Story book in the “Hello Music Land Adventures” series (Dimmie Drum and the Beanstalk). This delightful edition will join the Hello Music merchandise collection alongside Hello Music Land Plush Character Toys, posters and the Hello Music Land CD Soundtrack.
