Jingaroo (partially found direct-to-video animated series; 1998-1999)
Jingaroo was a direct-to-video 1998 animated series from Australia. It was co-created by Mark Stokes of Beckett Entertainment,[1] and produced by DNA Productions (responsible for the CG animation in shows like Jimmy Neutron and The Ant Bully). Jeff Amano[2] drew promotional artwork for the series. The first volume was completed sometime around late Summer-Fall 1998 and then shown on November 19 of that year at the Granada Movie Grill Prestonwood at Dallas, Texas. The last two volumes were completed by around Summer 1999.[3] The three volumes were then released on October 22, 1999, each containing three stories.[4]
The episodes focused on leading an active, sporty lifestyle, with characters (all based on Australian-native animals) occasionally breaking out into musical numbers, all of which were collated on a soundtrack album.[5] The series also used to have a website, which has since shut down.
Due to the limited release on VHS, Jingaroo has become extremely obscure. Videos on YouTube are scarce, with the exception of the three found below:
