A+ IP ACCELERATOR
Park Star Media is excited to announce the launch of our first A+ IP Accelerator Program , focused on selecting emerging animation talents. The program is designed to foster new original IPs through the process of development and pitching.
In the accelerator program, the selected creators will have the opportunity to develop their own original series and shows and receive exclusive mentoring, support, and resources. They will be introduced to innovative technologies and tools and receive training on how to develop content and push the boundaries of storytelling with the power of AI and more. Authenticity will play a key role in this accelerator as it aims to bring new stories that reflect the creator’s experiences and fascinations. Park Star Media will help to pitch, market, and empower the creator to bring their show to life!
In our commitment to promoting diversity and inclusion, we are specifically looking for emerging talent with API backgrounds. Park Star Media is excited to empower underrepresented talent and encourage unique storytelling from different perspectives in the animation industry and beyond.
Core A+ Values
The foundation of our accelerator program is driven by:
Authenticity: We value authenticity in all aspects of our program, from the selection of participants to the development of their projects. Our commitment to authenticity allows us to showcase the true diversity of voices and experiences within the animation industry, and empower creators to bring their most genuine stories to life.
AI: Technology enables creators to lightspeed their development process significantly. We aim to revolutionize the way we conceptualize and develop projects by utilizing AI tools and integration.
Animation: We strongly believe in the power and impact of animation to tell unique stories and share diverse perspectives, while also encouraging creators to stay true to their individual voices and styles.
API backgrounds: We aim to uplift underrepresented stories and voices from different Asian Pacific Islander communities, with a focus on authenticity and showcasing genuine experiences.
