Pocoyo "The movie"
Maybe is a good idea, maybe not..we are deeply thinking about it, first of all it`s not the same 6 minutes script than 90 minutes...long way! Will it works?..and what about white backrounds...definitily we have to think about other places, underwater, space, yes, but some more also...
Its going to be a huge challenge, but what if is it possible!!!...lets give it a try, at least lets see how a Pocoyo script for a film would be.
We are already involved in the develop of a new series and we are not planning doing Pocoyo´s 3rd seasion by the moment. It´s too long to explain here why, we first need to consolidate the series, and this is really hard for a preschool one. I think we will, but in the next years and at this time we will need to develop diferent contents as, for istance the movie.
We did some tries with the illumination which is one of the more important issues in this adventure as long as we just work with this caracteristics white backgrounds and global ilumination.
Samanta Undari, the profesional who´s in charge of the matter, did a great job bringing Pocoyo to the inside sets, here you have a couple of examples.


I think i would love a Pocoyo full motion picture, with lot of different settings and backgrounds. I'm already with a big smile on my face as i see the duck and pocoyo in the bed. You managed to creat some of the most cute cartoons i've seen in years... im 21 years old and i simply love Pocoyo. I watch it every afternoon on a Portuguese channel with my little 5 year old brother, and we laugh and laugh and laugh. Well done guys, and keep the excellent work. You have 2 fans here in Portugal.
WE LOVE POCOYO.

I would love to see a Pocoyo movie.
With its smooth animation, adorable characters, clever stories, funny facial expressions, plus new scenarios; everything sounds so good.
Im 23 and i watch pocoyo. I have told everyone i know with young children about pocoyo and they all agreed it is an amazing show that kids and grown ups adore.
I see the challenge this movie would mean to everyone involved in this project, however I, as a pocoyo fan, can only encourage you to make it come true.

Though part of the charm and originality of Pocoyo is the white background, it would be good if you could retain it for some of the flick - maybe you need some parallel storylines, with a richer background for one storyline and the white background for another - you could use it to great effect in structuring the story and it could be a clear visual clue for preschoolers to help denote story development.
Good luck!!

WOW DAVID!!! That looks fantastic! I love the whole concept of a movie and richer, more challenging visuals!
One thing you can probably rely on, is that many adults and older kids will want to go and see a Pocoyo movie, not just pre-schoolers, so in many ways a movie will cater to all the grown up fans of Pocoyo as well as the little ones. You might even be able to promote it that way so as to encourage them to come! :) "Bring a toddler, bring your friends!" :D
I know I'll go, toddler in hand or not! :D
Samanta did a wonderful job too, please let her know we like her work!
We're with you all the way, David!
Kind regards,
Denise xx

I love pocoyo! I'm an animator and have just started working in an animation studios.. learning from the basics again such as pose to pose animation! Pocoyo's animation helps me understand the simple idea of pose to pose animation so much! And i love it when Pocoyo giggles! Can't wait to see it come on movie!
Posted by: Yanni | September 19, 2007 at 06:06 PM
This is a very good idea, and I would truly keep an eye on the whole process. However, it would require a totally different script, you are right. But it is not like a sweet child adventure haven't been done before.
Good luck with your decision, whatever it is. I will be cheering for you all!

Saludos, sería estupendo ver una pelicula e Pocoyo, aunque claro se que es mucho trabajo y la aventura hay que desarrollarla muy bien pero vosotros sois excelentes.
Cuantan conmigo mis peques mi marido para ver la pelicula si la haceis al cine, asi que ya sabeis aqui os apoyamos en todo.
DENISE los juguetes de Pocoyo los consigues en "el Corte Ingles"
Suerte y espero que se haga la peli, byeeee

Hola amigos,
Soy Florencia, tengo 2 años y escribo desde Chile. Quiero contarles que me gusta mucho Pocoyo y me gustaria mucho poder tener un peluche de el. Aca en Chile no venden muchos y los que encuentro son demasiado caros y mis papis no pueden comprarmelo. Por favor, si Pocoyo pudieran mandarme un saludo me pondria muy feliz.
Ojala que pudieran hacer la pelicula, mis papas y yo las iriamos a ver.
Saludos
Posted by: Florencia | September 21, 2007 at 10:38 PM
A pocoyo movie would be great, but as you said David the hardest thing will be making a storyline both children and adults will enjoy together without doing anything "un-pocoyo" like. =0)

I like Pocoyo very much... I wish I had childs so I could go and see the movie with them!!!
Now that I think about it...
Good luck with the movie, team!!!! Sure you will find a good plot for it!
Posted by: José | September 24, 2007 at 10:30 PM
I LOVE POCOYO!!! He is adorable. I hope you'll make the movie. I bet you guys would do a fantastic job on it. I am 11 but I still love him. POCOYO!!! I LOVE YOU!!!
Cheers! :D

My son loves Pocoyo but has moved on to other programes. BUT if he saw a movie of the little blue fella i'm sure he would love it.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make the movie, we love Pocoyo.
POCOYO FOR EVER.
Would be interesting if you could extend the brand into Pocoyo growing up ????????

To Dave Green,
"Would be interesting if you could extend the brand into Pocoyo growing up ????????"
hmm...I'm not sure that would work. It would be like seeing Bart Simpson actually grow up. His appeal is his immaturity and daring to do things for which adults would be held highly accountable! LOL!
Pocoyo is for generation after generation of toddlers and the adults who love them.
It's a bit like a puppy or a kitten that no one wants to grow up, just stay cute, lovable and slightly helpless so they need us. That's Pocoyo too, at least for me. :) Pocoyo allows that everlastingness to exist. Besides, I love his giggles! hehehe!
Posted by: Denise | September 29, 2007 at 05:51 AM
Oh My GOD
YOU HAVE TO MAKE A POCOYO FILM
Im Fourteen Years Old And Pocoyo Is The Best Program In The World
I Can Assure You, It Wont Be Just Toddlers Wanting To See It
Ill Be Waiting At The Front Of That Line The day It Comes Out!
Bring On Pocoyo the Movie!!
:) Teehee! xx

Una pelicula de Pocoyo seria fabulosa! Saludos desde Venezuela!
PD: Opino que mantengan el fondo blanco, pero alternarlo con escenas un poco menos complicadas como las que muestran seria bueno, Pocoyo tiene una firma personal en eso del fondo blanco y no seria bueno perder ese toque tan de ustedes ;)

omgg i would want to see a pocoyo movie!!! it'll be soo fun!!

Hi there, Could you get back to me a soon as possible.
There are two people, Julia and Alberto who say they work for Zinkia.
They said they represent you and want to make a Pocoyo channel and want me to delete the Pocoyo username. But you have the password, so if they do work for you, you would have given them the password right?
Anyway, let me know what to do.

Pocoyo is the best programme out there for preschoolers. It's short, sweet and to the point. My 15 month old daughter loves it and unlike most tedious children's programs (cough*the night garden) it is a joy to watch with her. Currently Pocoyo is off air here in New Zealand so I have been hunting for DVD's, they are VERY hard to find as they usually sell quickly in the few stores that stock them. Anyhow getting to the point a movie would be great, if made it would be the first movie my daughter will see. For the indoors/outdoors thing why not make it so that one of the two is imaginary hence the change in setting. This would be totally believable as he is a very imaginative boy, also it may help with developing a storyline.
Cheers
Lydia

Haha! The coolest idea ever. I'd love to watch that movie, please, bring it to life!

Hi there!
My daughter and I LOVE pocoyo and friends! We are here in Singapore and have bought pocoyo vcd and never fail to watch re-runs of pocoyo on cable. My daughter even had her pocoyo birthday cake for her 3rd birthday. And she always demands to watch pocoyo before she sleeps at night.
Please, please do make a movie. Its truly educational for my little one. We look forward to it coming to Singapore!

O Pedro é um menino com 18meses e adora o Pocoyo, aliás ele é um Pocoyo ;-)
Gostavamos de ter no nosso site a loja online já em funcionamento.
não terminem com esta delicia de serie, é um mimo para o pedro e pais do pedro também
Posted by: Pedrinho | October 07, 2007 at 10:53 PM
Hi!! I'm Antonio and I'm 3 yrs old and from Brazil. I watch Pocoyo almost every morning with my mom (she's 30!) and we really, really like it. I mean, I sometimes think she likes it even more than I do. She even got to access this site! She mentioned the movie idea to me, and I think it would be awesome! You know what else I would really love? If you released a DVD with the episodes we watch on TV. I KNOW that mi mama would buy it in a heaertbeat!
The only thing that upset us was finding out that there won't be a third season... that made me sad...
Well, take good care! And get the store going! The rest of the site is really cool...
Peace
Antonio

To Antonio's Mom:
This blog post doesn't say there won't be a 3rd series, only that it will be delayed for a while. If they go ahead with the Pocoyo movie, they won't have time to do another series for a while anyway. :) Let me try to paraphrase what I think David meant. David, please correct me if I'm wrong. :)
David and the team at Zinkia are already involved in the development of a new series of Pocoyo (Season 2) and they are not planning on doing a 3rd season of Pocoyo at the moment. It would take too long to explain why, but first they need to consolidate the series, and this is really hard for a preschool one. They expect this will take a few years, so right now they want to focus on the need to develop different concepts, for instance the movie.
Mrs Mariano, you may not be aware of this but Season 1 of Pocoyo contained 52 episodes. Therefore when Season 2 is released, there'll be 104 episodes of Pocoyo to watch! That's a lot for any television series! :D
It's also a great deal of work for the team, so they need to focus on one project at a time, otherwise the quality of the series will suffer greatly.
Hope this all makes sense. :D
Kind regards,
Denise

Just for the record, you can find the Episode Guide and other information about the series, on Wikipedia:

Hello!
I'm 19 years old and i really LOVE Pocoyo!
The movie could be a great idea and it's sure that i will watch it!
Today, i received a Pocoyo's plush! I'm so happy! :D
Congratulations for the excellent work!
P.S.= I want an online Pocoyo's store for Portugal! xD

Felicitaciones por crear y hacer realidad una caricatura tan linda como POCOYO. Desde el primer día que la vimos nos gustó. A mi hija Paula le encanta y pone mucha atención a la TV cuando escucha la música de POCOYO incluso la publicidad. Para su cumpleaños mi mamá le hizo una piñata de POCOYO, acá hay unas fotos por si las quieren ver.

Saludos desde Chile y si hacen la Pelicula, por supuesto que la iremos a ver.

PLEASE RELEASE A DVD!!! it would be great to see it :D
Posted by: adsleonard | October 13, 2007 at 12:40 PM
I'm absolutly in love with Pocoyo!
My 7 months' old daughter adores it! The white background makes her think that she can grab the carachters and she gets very excited when watching it :-)
A movie would definetly be something diferent, but I believe equally interesting for kids - please do it!
The website also was a happy surprise... I really wanted to make her 1 year b-day party with Pocoyo and you have everything already!! Great, thank you veeeery much, I'm sure the party will be fantastic.
Congratulations again!
PS: I'm writting from Brazil!

Nos encanta Pocoyo.
Mi niña de cuatro meses y yo vemos los capítulos y "leemos" los libritos. A ella le encanta y sonrie a Pocoyo cuando le ve en la tele. Conoci a Pocoyo por mis sobrinos de 3 y 2 años, que bailaban como él.
Una pena que el blog esté en ingles, tengo problemas para leerlo. Estaria bien lo de la película. El fondo blanco facilita la atención a los bebes, pero quiza para el cine haya que cambiarlo, eso si, no lo hagais muy complicado o ya no será el autentico Pocoyo.
Un saludo desde Sevilla

My daughter's 2 yrs old and we love pocoyo! I can recall that Pocoyo's the first TV show that she liked at 11th month. haha!
Can you create downloadable wallpapers... I'm pretty sure she'll like it very much.
Bout a Movie? Coolness!

Good luck to you guys and hope everything will work out right! :)
Posted by: Kathleen | November 04, 2007 at 02:18 PM
Me and my daughter love watching pocoyo in the UK and would love to see the movie even more.The set images look great and it doesn't have to look like real life settings, as who ever saw an elephant in heels anyway? Its like an escapism into a childs imagination and thats what makes pocoyo fun. As long as the humour is kept alive and the storyline isn't too complex then the movie will be a success.Its an amazing show that people of all ages can enjoy.
Posted by: Nicola | November 04, 2007 at 03:10 PM
amo a POCOYO...
hagan luego la pelicula y traiganla a chile, por favor!!!.....

Tengo 23 años y amo Pocoyó,es la serie que me hubiese gustado ver cuando era pequeño.Felicidades por la estética cute y por ese toque que hace que los mayores disfrutemos más que los pequeños con ésta joyita.
Sobre llevarlo al cine,mh,es complicado,pero contais con el suficiente apoyo a lo largo del mundo como para que salga adelante.Eso sí,por lo menos la secuencia de inicio debería ser algo impresionante y nunca visto,y la historia más que un simple episodio de Pocoyó.POR FAVOR POR FAVOR si se hace,no hagais algo al estilo de "Pocoyó en el país de las matemáticas" o similar.Valeis muchísimo más que todo eso.
Un abrazo desde España (qué pena que este haya sido precisamente uno de los últimos países donde se estrene...y encima en condiciones deplorables)
