VeeFriends Animations Produced by Moonbug Entertainment, Coming Late Summer 2024

This week VeeFriends announced a significant partnership with Moonbug Entertainment and VaynerWatt to create a premium content franchise based on the VeeFriends universe. The collaboration introduces “VeeFriends” Animated Shorts, a 2D-animated show designed for children aged 6–11 and their families. Set in the dynamic VeeFriends universe, the series features larger-than-life characters navigating the VeeDome, an epic challenge arena, to address youth-related issues. Each character entering the VeeDome emerges stronger and more self-aware, emphasizing the show’s focus on emotional intelligence and aiming to inspire empathy and competition. Scheduled for release on YouTube in late Summer 2024, the three-minute shorts encourage co-viewing, allowing parents and children to explore themes together.
