Last night the Academy of Canadian Cinema & Television honoured the best of the best in Canadian Kids media at the 2021 Canadian Screen Awards - Children’s and Animation Program. 

And we are thrilled to announce that members from both our Xavier Riddle and Let’s Go Luna productions took home awards!

First up, Desmond Sargeant and Meghan Read won in the category of Best Writing, Animation for their brilliant work on Xavier Riddle and the Secret Museum - “I am Harriet Tubman”.

If you would like to learn more about Desmond and Meghan’s writing process and their approach to crafting the “I am Harriet Tubman” episode, check out our recent interview with the award-winning writers here.

Thank you @TheCdnAcademy for this amazing honor! Thank you, Meghan, the best collaborator anyone could ask for. None of this would be possible without @9StoryMG @BrownBagFilms @tvo @bradmeltzer @ChrisEliopoulos and the entire Xavier Riddle team. Love and thanks to my family! https://t.co/zmy8KgE8Gq
