MUMBAI: Animation, e-Learning and edutainment services provider La Vision Animation Pvt Ltd (LV APL) has launched an interactive web portal Buzziboy.com.

Additionally, they also announced the launch of a new global character called Buzziboy.

Aimed at kids in the age group of 6 to 14 years, the character is being launched through Buzziboy.com.

The portal contains eComics, stories, cartoons, fun-based learning games, greetings, club, chat, email, e-mart.

According to LV APL CEO Ashish Mann, "Buzziboy.com is a tool that we are offering to the parents and teachers to help develop soft skills in the kids and impart value-based education through entertainment. It makes learning fun - so that the kids imbibe and practice what they learn."

"Buzziboy does not talk about muscle power but about creativity and about the power of mind in solving problems faced in day-to-day life. It inculcates positive and constructive thought process in the young minds, helping them grow with the right attitude, values and knowledge," added Mann.

The reward mechanisms, conceived to encourage enhanced portal usage by the kids, have been structured to boost their self-esteem through relevant prizes. Instead of the usual goodies, Buzziboy has an option of converting reward points in paying tuition fees, kids' bank account and mediclaim policies to the kids earning highest number of points.

LV APL also plans to expand the Buzzi medium of delivery from the current online space to DTH/mobility as well as DVDs. "We are working on making a full-length DVD movie out of one of the comics. India has a great potential for cartoon characters as children love watching cartoons. I am bullish about animation in India," added Mann.

Initially focused on the leading metros of India, Buzzi Bandwagon is planned to roll out across the nation soon. "We are working to reach out to the kids though a multitude of options - online and offline promotions as well as direct school connect," said Mann.

As part of the school connect programme, Buzzi will reach out to the teaching community to sensitise its members about the utility of using comic characters to impart value-based education. Buzzi will also organise a range of activities across different schools to enhance the top-of-the-mind recall for Buzzi Gang.
