Iconicles is a live-action/animated television series for pre-schoolers. The series is a British-American co-production between Create Media Ventures (as "Iconicles Limited") and phuuz entertainment, in association with Foothill Entertainment and Dinamo Productions. The series uses a cross between live-action, flash animation, and CGI animation.




Plot


The series tells of a man named Nat (Gavin Stenhouse) who invents an amazing display, the Iconi-Screen, that allows him to communicate with animated animals in various settings, such as a farm, the sea, a jungle, and a forest. The animals are called "Iconicles". In every episode, Nat has a problem and is helped to solve it by an Iconicle, who jumps out of the Iconi-Screen to enter the real world and interact with Nat. At some point in every episode, there is a game with questions and answers based on what happened with some of the Iconicles.
