Toonz Media Group, leader in the animation industry and based out of here, has come up with what it claims as the first ever 'Cocoon' Concept Lab for budding animators.

The initiative is designed to support authentic storytelling and ideas by facilitating individualised concept development for emerging budding creators and writers with a ready TV/ digital series idea or screenplay.

Creators of selected unique concepts will be mentored by experts in the field and the idea will be developed for further execution, a spokesman for the animation house said here.

Individual mentors will track, advise and inspire them to create pitches for being presented at the Animation Masters that Toonz Media Group will host here on May 3 and 4 as also for future pitches worldwide.
