Vietnamese animation studio Sconnect has just been certified with two records: owning the largest number of copyrights for Vietnamese animation films and having the most episodes of a Vietnamese animation film released in multiple languages ​​on the Youtube platform. This is the first time in Vietnam that two records have been set in the field of animation.

On January 6, in Ho Chi Minh City, within the framework of the 53rd Vietnam Record Holders Reunion program, celebrating the 20th anniversary of the establishment of the Vietnam Record Organization (VIETKING), Sconnect Vietnam was honored and certified with 2 Vietnamese records: "The unit owning the largest number of copyrights related to Vietnamese animated films (127 copyrights)" and "Wolfoo - Vietnamese animated film released in multiple languages ​​on the Youtube platform with the most episodes".

Sconnect is a company established in 2014, operating in the field of content production and trading on online platforms (Make Money Online - MMO). The company's digital content products span many fields and aspects of life, but the most prominent is animation, which is the main content area and has brought the most achievements to Sconnect.

Applying diverse technologies to animation production such as 2D, 3D, 2D Frame by Frame, Stopmotion or Live-action, Sconnect currently owns up to 13 animation IPs (intellectual property), along with an ecosystem of more than 15,000 channels and attracts billions of regular followers every month.

With the nature of producing and trading products on the Internet, copyright registration for production resources is an activity that the company always focuses on. Each animated IP has many different components that need copyright protection such as worldview, movie scenes or character designs. Therefore, the subjects that need to register copyright of Sconnect are very large and need to be carried out in order of priority.

To date, Sconnect's most prominent animated IP is the Wolfoo character series, a cartoon character loved by hundreds of millions of children around the world.

The Wolfoo animated series was started by Sconnect in 2014 and officially released to global viewers in mid-2018. Up to now, Wolfoo has produced 3,700 episodes with a length of 3-5 minutes (an average of 25 new episodes released each month), translated into 17 languages ​​with a total of more than 20,000 videos. Wolfoo is released on multiple platforms: Social networks (YouTube, TikTok, Facebook), television (SCTV, FPT Play, Chinese television), released on NetFlix and more than 40 OTT/IPTV platforms in many countries.

Not only conquering audiences on digital platforms, Sconnect also boldly invested in the theatrical version, and the movie "Wolfoo and the Mysterious Island" was officially released to audiences in cinemas nationwide from October 13, 2023. "Wolfoo and the Mysterious Island" has made its mark as the first Vietnamese animated film to be commercially released in cinemas. After only 1 week of release, according to Box Office Vietnam, "Wolfoo and the Mysterious Island" has ranked in the Top 3 in box office revenue.

After nearly 5 years of development, the total number of Wolfoo followers on YouTube channels has reached nearly 100 million regular followers and brought in more than 41 billion views across the entire channel system.

Vietnam Records Organization (VietKings) was established in 2004 as the first and only record organization to search for, recognize and establish Vietnamese records. VietKings was established with the mission of searching for and honoring the pinnacle values ​​of Vietnam to the world. At the same time, affirming achievements, outstanding values, evoking national pride and position in the international arena.

The first two animation records were established as a motivation for Sconnect to continue to promote production and business activities, striving to make its mark with many other impressive achievements in the animation market which is growing strongly and becoming a "piece of cake" with great potential.
