Back in October, we reported that Premiere Publishing Group Inc., publisher of Trump Magazine, had drafted a letter of intent to produce an animated series featuring business tycoon and reality TV star Donald Trump. Now the company announces that Trump has extended the letter to March 31, and has hired Animation Dimensions to handle animation production.

Headquartered in San Jose, Calif., Animation Dimensions is a full-service animation outfit with major studios in India. The company specializes in Flash animation and counts Mike Young Prods., Outside Line and 6ph among its clients. Credits include the British series Empire Square, which aired on Channel 4 in the U.K. and was picked up by music-centric cable TV network fuse in the U.S.

"Right from the start, we felt great synergy with Animation Dimensions' CEO Elizabeth Koshy,” says Michael Jacobson, CEO of Premiere Publishing Group. “We are confident she and her team will be an asset in the completion of all presentation materials and animation shorts for approval by The Trump Organization within the extended timeline."

Animation Dimensions will produce a pilot for the yet untitled Trump toon which, upon approval, will be presented by Premiere Publishing to major networks for series consideration.
