Little Airplane execs part ways with Studio 100

Departure of Josh Selig and Sharon Gomes is a result of an ‘ongoing strategic exercise’.

As a result of an ongoing strategic exercise, Studio 100 and Josh Selig and Sharon Gomes, ceo and coo of Little Airplane Productions respectively, have mutually agreed to part ways.

Little Airplane Productions was acquired by Studio 100 in 2017 and has allowed the company to expand its activities into both the US and China.

“Due to the impact of the ongoing COVID 19-pandemic on Studio 100’s business, we have decided to further integrate the activities of our Studio 100 International business unit under the leadership of Barbara Stephen and Martin Krieger in order to create a more streamlined organisation,” explained Hans Bourlon (pictured above right), founding shareholder and ceo of Studio 100. “I want to sincerely thank Josh and Sharon for their hard work and commitment to Little Airplane and Studio 100 over the last three years and wish them all the best in their future endeavours.”

Josh Selig (pictured above left) added: “While our collaboration has come to an end, I have every faith in the team at Little Airplane and Studio 100 to continue delivering the kind of high-quality preschool shows that Little Airplane is renowned for. I wish them all the very best.

“As for me, I will be announcing a new China/US initiative in the coming year and I will continue to create and produce meaningful children’s content for the global market.”
