Splash Entertainment


Splash Entertainment LLC, formerly Mike Young Productions LLC and MoonScoop Entertainment LLC, is an American animation studio that produces children's TV series.
Splash owns 100% of Kabillion.

History

The studio was originally owned and operated by three animation producers, husband and wife Mike and Liz Young, and Bill Schultz. The studio makes both traditional 2D and 3D computer animation. Mike Young Productions became a fully owned subsidiary of MoonScoop Group in 2006, with Mike Young becoming COO US Producer of MoonScoop Group in 2009.
Moonscoop Entertainment's parent company MoonScoop entered administration in Paris courts in July 2013, but this did not affect the operations of the US company. Jokebox, a French company, purchased MoonScoop France's 51% ownership in MoonScoop Entertainment.
MoonScoop Entertainment renamed itself Splash Entertainment with the purchasing of the controlling interest by Mike and Liz Young in February 2014.
