Majid Kids TV is a new channel from the United Arab Emirates, and Craig Miller has developed two animated series for them, supervising the writing, and he wrote a half-hour special they used to announce the channel.
A sample video from Majid, about a teenage boy who travels around the world and solves mysteries, has been posted to YouTube.
It begins with a montage of scenes from scripts by Shaene Siders and Jeremiah Smith, and a full episode written by Genny Dazzo.
All the dialog is in Arabic.

It’s been an interesting project.
If Craig spends any time in the UAE while working on this project, maybe he can make a quick side trip to Qatar, to consult with the local fandom there about their 2022 Worldcon bid.
That was interesting.
I haven’t watched much recent animation and my eyes are not accustomed to it yet. It was interesting to see classic cel-animation style drawing but computerized movement.
