Magic Light Pictures, a privately owned company based in the UK, was founded in 2003 and has approximately 50 employees. The company reported $16.4M in revenue as of 2023 and is recognized as a tier 2 media tech buyer. Specializing in content rights, Magic Light Pictures focuses on the creation of family entertainment and brands, managing their production, distribution, licensing, and marketing.
Magic Light Pictures, in partnership with BBC Children's and Education, will release a new CGI animated comedy adventure series for preschool audiences based on Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler's "Zog" books and films. The series, focusing on self-care and environmental care, is set to air on CBeebies and BBC iPlayer on April 28, 2026. This follows the acquisition of Wild Child Animation. On March 30, 2026, Magic Light Pictures' wholly-owned Stirling Animation Studio Ltd purchased the assets and business of Stirling-based studio Wild Child Animation via a pre-pack administration process, saving 30 jobs. Wild Child Animation had previously worked on productions for Cartoon Network, Disney, and Warner Bros. Earlier, on March 29, 2026, Magic Light Pictures confirmed the launch of Stirling Animation Studio (SAS) as a new wholly-owned facility. This studio was established to complete the production of its "Zog" preschool series for the BBC and international partners, after Wild Child Animation entered administration in February. Co-founders Martin Pope and Michael Rose stated the quick action aimed to protect a team, a major production, and a key part of Scotland's animation capability.
