Children’s TV: Research



Here are some TV programmes that the age range of 4-10 watch:
  • Phineas and Ferb
  • Pocoyo
  • Adventure Time
  • Fireman Sam
  • Bob the Builder
  • Dora the Explorer
I’ve noticed that the characters in these programs are stubby and short-limbed, with the exceptions of Dora’s Adults, Phineas and Ferb and Adventure Time. Dora’s and P and F’s adults are effectively normal looking. Adventure Time characters (in 2D) have no restrictions in their sizing, shape and form. So I will not likely be working with this style much.
Dora the explorer, Fireman Sam, Bob the Builder and Pocoyo are fairly similar in their design, so I will try to work from these. Also they are well loved and watched programmes that even I, a twenty-something with no immediate links to children, know of the programmes.
