CATDOLL: "Totem Field" won the 2016 Beijing Cultural Quality Project Key Project

Recently, the Publicity Department of Beijing Municipal Committee announced the results of the collection and review of the "Key Projects of Beijing Cultural Quality Projects in 2016 (First Batch)". The animation "Totem Domain", produced by Light Box Power (Beijing) Animation Technology Co., Ltd. and co-produced by Beijing TV Kaku Children's TV, was successfully selected along with other cultural quality projects such as "Big Fish and Begonia" due to its high-quality production standards and distinctive themes of China's excellent traditional culture.

The cartoon "Totem Realm" is based on ancient Chinese myths and legends and integrates modern innovative elements to create a cool mecha image with Chinese connotations and modern fashion sense. It tells the inspirational growth story of the little protagonists and the "totem beasts" who unite for their beliefs, fight against evil forces, and protect the human homeland. The cartoon also hopes to convey excellent positive energy to young audiences through interesting growth adventure stories, and promote excellent traditional Chinese cultural concepts such as "harmonious coexistence of man and all things".

The high-quality production level of "Totem Realm" is inseparable from the high investment of Lightbox Power, which is also fully reflected in all aspects of the animation. According to the producer Lightbox Power, the total production cost of "Totem Realm" is as high as tens of millions of RMB, and the production cost per minute is as high as tens of thousands of RMB. The production cost of a single episode is equivalent to a BMW car.

The creative team of Lightbox Power is experienced and energetic, and has participated in the creation of many well-known animation projects. Not only does it make the animation more bold and innovative in story and character design, but it is also more contemporary. The many "totem beasts" in the animation with distinct personalities and rich Chinese totem culture and modern mecha elements are the most perfect embodiment.

It is worth mentioning that the dubbing and real music of "Totem Realm" have reached the level of movies. Many well-known dubbing masters such as Jiang Guangtao, Liu Xiaoyu, Zhang Jie, Yan Mengmeng, Baomu Zhongyang, Qiao Shiyu, Tang Xiaoxi and Su Shangqing have contributed their voices. The solid, professional and vivid dubbing has also become a highlight of "Totem Realm".

The luxurious dubbing lineup can be described as a top team in the dubbing industry. They have been responsible for dubbing the main characters in many popular and well-known film and television dramas and animation works such as "Big Fish and Begonia", "Alice in Wonderland", "The Legend of Zhen Huan", "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", "One Hundred Thousand Bad Jokes", "Swords of Legends", "Palace", and "Fox Spirit Matchmaker".

At the same time, LightBox invited famous musicians Gu Xin and Xue Yunsheng to be responsible for the original soundtrack composition and overall sound design and production. Nearly 100 minutes of high-quality original soundtrack and sound design greatly enhanced the sensory effects and emotional tension of the animation.

Gu Xin was nominated for the Best Music at the 31st Hong Kong Film Awards and has participated in the creation of original soundtracks for outstanding film and television works such as "Flying Daggers of Dragon Gate" and "Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy"; Xue Yunsheng served as the director of the audio department at Perfect World, a top domestic game company, and was responsible for the music work of many outstanding game projects such as "Zhu Xian", "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber", "Swordsman" and "Dota 2".

On June 30, 2016, "Totem Domain" was pre-broadcast on Beijing Television's Kaku Children's Satellite TV, achieving a prime-time viewership of 1.16 and ranking sixth in the country, and was also recognized and acknowledged by both the industry and the audience.

It is reported that "Totem Field" will premiere on Beijing TV's Kaku Children's TV at the end of this summer and officially meet the audience.
