Birdland Entertainment is a producer and distributor of animated content for VOD
platforms, powered by an entrepreneurial spirit. Disruptors at heart, we are constantly
searching for innovative ways to bring the best animated content possible for kids and
adults alike!
Our strategy? Having a ‘digital-first’ approach. We create our shows independently and
launch them across all major platforms (YouTube, Amazon, iQiyi, you name it!) through our
distribution network, reaching a worldwide audience, maximising engagement and
generating billions of views in the process.
Our philosophy? Being ‘audience-centric’. We leverage tech and performance data to tailor
our concepts into being the most appealing possible. Today, a plurality of shows is
competing over watch time so who better to help creators stand out than the viewers
themselves? By meeting a worldwide audience and refining our content to their response,
we maximize chances to create meaningful brands.
