Youngvision

Youngvision was a Jetanie entertainment company, specialising in children's media, most notably cartoons. Founded in 1999 and defunct in 2011, the company's headquarters were located in Leyenda in Jetania, on South Street.

The history behind the company dates back to 1996; Kyon Dickinson and Henry Lee Christopher had originally founded an animation company, called DnC's Cartoons!, but the two were unsuccessful due to having a low budget and no promotion. Elsewhere, Amrit Freeland had just left school, with a degree in both drama and art. After hearing about Dickinson and Christopher, and receiving a government grant, Freeland contacted the two, and the three decided to join forces and create a company.

Talking about the name "Youngvision", Freeland once stated "Kyon was the one who chose the name. He said he was aiming to make stuff for the kids. He said it was like we had a vision for entertaining children, and [me and Christopher] thought it worked. Looking back, it probably sounds a bit stupid, but we thought it worked at the time."

In September 2010, Dickinson posted on Twitter that the company were "skint", and had been a loss since 2009. Christopher departed from the company in October that year, which was later placed into administration in February 2011. On 1st May 2011, the company was bought and merged into Triple Star after, according to Freeland, an "incredibly boring, and stressing, dispute".

All three founders parted ways: Amrit has taken a indefinite hiatus from animation, but still works as an actress and author. Kyon continues his animation work, whilst Christopher moved to El Kadsre and currently works at El TV Kadsre Animation, and has worked on/headed several productions for the company.
