REALLY WILD WEST SHOW ANIMATIC

2007-06-19T04:13:00.001-07:00

This is the final animatic for The Really Wild West Show, completed May 2007. Originally, the first Western scene was intended to be part of the pilot show, but we decided the concept was so strong it would be more effective as an entire episode!

RIA AND RYAN'S REALLY BIG MISSION!

2007-06-19T03:56:00.000-07:00

Ria and Ryan are a typical brother and sister, they love each other, irritate each other and they love to annoy each other! We invite you to join in their epic adventures from the comfort of their own living room!

Ria and Ryan were created out of Director Sarah Ricketts' unyielding passion to return children's programming to the high quality seen from the previous decades, and back into peoples hearts and minds. Primarily focused at children aged 4 - 10 Ria and Ryan are a driving force in encouraging children and 'tweenagers' that it is great to be a child!

We want Ria and Ryan to be the pinnacle of quality entertainment and family orientated fun, but before we create a show there are certain criteria we wanted Ria and Ryan to fulfill:

Ria and Ryan aim to create a positive and above all a fun learning environment for children, learning its good to learn, Ria and Ryan will always educate children in a subtle nature through the medium of fun, children will always learn from Ria and Ryan without having information forced upon them.

Ria and Ryan will inhabit a world that children can connect and relate with, all of Ria and Ryan's props look like they have been made by Ria and Ryan encouraging children to become creative and create their own games and toys.

Ria and Ryan encourage children to play, playing is fun it helps build confidence and social skills, whether indoors or outdoors Ria and Ryan take playtime to a new level that children will actively want to take part in.

Ria and Ryan love and care about each other, they help promote moral standards and everything that is good. Educating children in right and wrong, different cultures, globalisation and good positive human nature, Ria and Ryan represent every child, they think, feel, ask questions and explore, sharing all their emotions and journeys together.

Ria and Ryan have endless possibilities, their imagination knows no bounds keeping Ria and Ryan fresh innovative and informative. Maintaining quality and positive content, Ria and Ryan put the welfare of children first and will not make inferior and unnecessary episodes, increasing their appeal and creating timeless entertainment.

Above all Ria and Ryan emphasises to parents, teachers, carers and children themselves that children should enjoy being children, not being forced to grow too up early, and we should support them wholeheartedly by letting them and giving them the right to be children.

How can you get involved with Ria and Ryan?

Let Ria and Ryan into your lives, enjoy and love them for being everything they are supposed to be, you me and everybody who treasures their childhood and children. Help us create a new age of children's TV and lets give childhood back to children!
