There’s heaps of new Flash-animated DVDs on the market….

First we have Pucca: Spooky Sooga Village, that features 77 minutes of spooky, Halloween-themed shorts. The series, as you may know, started out on the web and graduated to a Flash-animated TV series in 2006.

Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! A Tale of Tails arrived last week, featuring 8 episodes of the series created by Bob Boyle. The show is aimed at the 3-7 audience. In honor of this release, let’s watch a promo for the Wubbzy Dance Contest.

And I’ve also spotted new DVDs from College University and Jimmy Cross - It’s Monkey Time!

The 35th Annual Daytime Entertainment Emmy Awards will be held this year on June 13th at the Lincoln Center in NYC. But several artists who worked on Flash-animated shows have already been honored, and will walk home with big ol’ golden statues. Emmy awards were recently announced for Outstanding Individual Achievement in Animation, and all three artists worked on Flash-animated series. Sanda Equihua, a co-creator of El Tigre, won for her character design work on the Enter the Cuervo episode, Bob Boyle took home the production designer trophy for Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!, and Peter Ferk snagged the award for storyboarding on Growing Up Creepie. Congrats, gang!

Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! premieres today at 11am on both Nick Jr. and Noggin. The 26-episode Flash-animated series is the creation of Bob Boyle, who also witnessed his other creation, Yin Yang Yo!, premiere earlier this summer.

The series is produced by Bolder Media for Boys and Girls (Fred Seibert and Susan Miller) and IDT/Film Roman. Two animation studios knocked out the episodes - Six Point Harness in Hollywood and Bardel in Canada.

You can enjoy the show on the web too. There’s the official TV site, the producer’s website, and the wubbcast site where you can see a short ‘How Its Done’ video (MOV) or a watch the latest podcast video (m4v or mov).

After today, the series will air at 11:30am on weekdays.

Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! is coming to Nick Jr. in August, but you can currently catch a sneak preview over at nickjr.com. A music video is playing for those using Internet Explorer, and everyone can watch the Wubbzy promo over at wubbzy.com. The show is animated in Flash, and the above-mentioned music video was animated by Stanton Cruse of Six Point Harness.

You can also read a short interview with the show’s creator, Bob Boyle, over at nickjr.com. Here’s a preview:

The show is created by elves in a magical far-off land! Well, actually, they aren’t really elves, and the far-off land is Burbank, California. But it’s still magical! The real magic is that we create the show in a program called Flash. It helps us reuse animation elements in a really efficient way and allows us to achieve the really crisp clean graphic style that we were going for. But if you know of any out of work elves, please send them our way!

Wubbzy is being produced by Bolder Media, a company headed up by Fred Seibert and Susan Miller. The nickjr.com site will reportedly have something new up every Tuesday.
