HALIFAX – DHX Media has been commissioned by Nickelodeon in the U.S. and YTV in Canada to produce a new, live-action musical-comedy series geared to tweens.
Make It Pop, currently filming at DHX's Epitome Studio in Toronto, is a half-hour sitcom about three girls who come together to start their own K pop-inspired band. With the help of fellow boarding school classmate and DJ hopeful Caleb, the girls grow from roommates to bandmates as their band, XO-IQ, becomes a school-wide sensation and they compete for a place in the upcoming school musical.
The series, which will feature original songs and performances in every episode, is co-created by Thomas W. Lynch and Nick Cannon and produced by DHX Media. DHX Media will also handle global distribution and brand management for Make It Pop, as well as merchandising and licensing through appointed agency Copyright Promotions Licensing Group Ltd.
