TRICK 3D Delivers Big Christmas Fun to Families by way of a tiny Reindeer named Lil’ Rey in The Jolliest Elf: Lil’ Rey
ATLANTA - Dec. 4, 2020 - From the director of “The Elf on the Shelf: An Elf’s Story,” Chad Eikhoff, comes the first-ever animated reality competition talent show set at The North Pole – The Jolliest Elf. While reality talent competitions have become a family entertainment mainstay, none have been animated and broadcast live from The North Pole – until now. From Chad Eikhoff and TRICK 3D Studios comes “The Jolliest Elf: Lil’ Rey” on Amazon Prime, Amazon Kids+ and YouTube. “The Jolliest Elf Lil’ Rey” serves as a pilot episode to showcase the concept for a full series coming in 2021. The novel concept is made possible thanks to Eikhoff utilizing real-time animation techniques from the makers of Fortnite (Epic Games), motion capture technologies and, of course, Christmas magic from The North Pole!
“The Jolliest Elf: Lil’ Rey” introduces the North Pole’s most charismatic elf, and the host of the show, Mr. Jingles! Additionally, viewers meet the star- and snowflake-studded cast of judges:
Glo – the most glamourous, superstar elf
Frosty – Mrs. Claus’ Top Chef
Tiny – the toughest talent scout at The North Pole
These judges are tasked with finding The North Pole’s Jolliest Elf. The pilot features one special contestant: Lil’ Rey, an adorable and hugely talented young reindeer rapper who, despite being born without the ability to fly, has a special talent she shares with Mr. Jingles and the judges on The North Pole Stage. Lil’ Rey’s performance will keep viewers dancing, beat-boxing and overflowing with jolliness this holiday season! Her single, voiced by Macyn McMillian a/k/a Mac Sauce, and titled “Lil’ Rey’s Reindeer Rap” is now available on streaming music platforms everywhere.
“Music, talent competition shows, and Christmas magic all have something in common: an amazing power to bring families together to make and share memories,” remarks writer and director Chad Eikhoff. “Lucky enough for us all, The North Pole has all three!”
