Lifefilm Entertainment Seeks Crowdfunding via Kickstarter for MeiLynn's World: The Best Mandarin Chinese Learning Video for Kids Ever Created

MeiLynn's World is like nothing ever seen before in the genre of Mandarin Learning Programs.

 

New York, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/11/2014 -- Driven by creative forces behind Disney hit films and a string of successful television shows, MeiLynn’s World was created with impressive DNA to deliver an engaging and unique Mandarin learning program that features great storytelling, appealing characters, fun and addictive original songs and score, and perhaps best of all – a polished fusion of animation and live action. All of this comes together to deliver an engaging and educational experience for children who wish to learn Mandarin Chinese. Due to its tonal nature and its departure from linguistic patterns common to Latin-based languages, Mandarin Chinese is considered one of the most challenging languages for an English speaker to learn.

MeiLynn’s World shatters these language barriers thanks to Peilin Chou, who was inspired to create this program out of her desire to excite her own children about learning Mandarin Chinese. Peilin has a background as a Creative Development Executive at Walt Disney Feature Animation as well as Nickelodeon, and brings that level of experience, expertise and professionalism to this new groundbreaking animated program as no one else can. MeiLynn’s World will also feature original songs and score by Broadway composer Christopher Curtis.

MeiLynn’s World follows the adventures of MeiLynn, the owner of a Chinese restaurant in New York City’s Chinatown. What viewers quickly come to learn is that MeiLynn's restaurant is actually magical. At night after the restaurant closes, MeiLynn has a whole team of friends that come to life and help her prepare the food for the next day. The cast of characters include: Micro - a funny, fast-talking dragon, Hayden & Bailey - two daring little teacups, and their doting mother Cha Ma Ma. To make things even more interesting is a ninja-like knife named Da Dao and a mischievous condiment called Jiang Yio.

Why MeiLynn’s World? Mandarin learning videos for children currently on the market today are often dry, repetitive, and focused exclusively on trying to drill vocabulary. They are usually produced with little to no budget and have no defined characters or even a story a child can connect to. Language lessons delivered this way feel more like "homework", resulting in kids having little to no interest in watching. When kids get bored and tune out, whatever chance of learning is eliminated. MeiLynn’s World changes all that by attracting and engaging kids who will be so invested in and entertained by the characters, story and music, they won't even realize they're learning Mandarin along the way!

This crowdfunding campaign ends on November 21, 2014.
