New Form is showcasing a slate of shorts from talented storytellers that are mentored and funded by NF as they develop and produce their original stories from concept to pilot. These commissioned concepts serve to inspire an eventual digital series to debut on a variety of platforms.

In just two years, New Form's successful Incubator has yielded some of their most successful series. Past Incubators that have sold to series include Streamy winners Oscar's Hotel for Fantastical Creatures and Anna Akana's Miss 2059, as well as Youtube Red's Single By 30, I Ship It available on CW SEED and Mr. Student Body President, which just received an additional 30-epsiode order from partner go90. Most recently, NF sold pilot Final Space, a story of an intergalactic coast guard named 'Gary' who makes it his quest to protect his new alien friend 'Mooncake' from the evil Lord Commander, coming to TBS in 2017.

"Our goal is to tell great stories, and provide some of the world's most original, emerging creators an opportunity to share something completely new and exciting with their audience," said Melissa Schneider, New Form's EVP, Originals & Development. "This round of pilots and creators were selected because they have the right combination of originality, audience scale, creative vision and a passion for storytelling-which is the heart of Incubator."

JC Cangilla, New Form's COO adds, "Our Incubator program is central to New Form's success in being the most prolific digital studio. We're so excited to have an active NAPTE, where buyers across the media spectrum are showing interest." He continues, "This incubator features a wide range of scripted genres including action adventure, dark comedy and mystical drama-this slate represents the unique narratives we are seeing a high demand for in the marketplace."
