"Annie & Axie" explores various story arcs that delve into the heart of intercultural family dynamics, offering a unique perspective on how families from different backgrounds interact. Director Victor Migalchan emphasizes, "We have a few story arcs here: first, it is an intercultural family: a European dad and a Chinese mom. It is rare for Hollywood to portray authentic not only Chinese but other Asian characters. Second, it's the interaction of a younger girl (Annie) with her father and mother, each offering different interactions. Third, the interactions between Annie and her older siblings, played by Josslyn Banh and Ian Chen, who are almost teenagers (between ages 12 and 13)."

What sets "Annie & Axie" apart is its multi-faceted approach to education. The series seamlessly integrates lessons on family dynamics, the animal kingdom, historical events, and biblical legends into its storyline. Migalchan elaborates on this integration, "Annie meets her new animal friend and learns about the animal world by searching for an animal companion for her friend, Axie. She learns 'search, and you will find,' and while searching in the library, she discovers appropriate books. "We want to spark the interest in reading in kids," says Migalchan. In her online search, she finds 'the Bible,' a character played by the legendary Cung Le, and learns wisdom and legends that are historical and biblical. She also has a deep connection with her dad, learns prayers, and nurtures her relationship with the Father."
As for character development and the series' storyline, "Annie & Axie" is packed with educational elements. "Annie & Axie" isn't just for fun - it's all about teaching kids important life lessons. Migalchan explains that the show has lots of things to help kids grow up smart, learn about unity, be strong, and, eventually, happy. They'll learn about family and friends, what makes a true good friend, and even about animals. It's all about getting kids excited to read and learn, and they'll also get some wisdom from the Bible, with Cung Le telling them about history and how it can help them in real life.

A key highlight of the series is the young actress Kimberly Tang, who plays the central role of Annie. Tang, known as "Baby Wing Chun," a six-year-old prodigy and Wing Chun master, brings a remarkable set of qualities and skills to her character. Director Migalchan praises her, saying, "She is simply fantastic! Her talent and wisdom are way beyond her age. She is only six years old but acts more mature than many adults, to be honest. I believe we should thank her dad, Master Clark Tang from the Wing Chun temple, and, of course, her deep connection with the Father. She is the representative of our hope for a bright future because she is the future. I'm also happy to say that our Life Academy finalists Josslyn Banh, Ian Chen, Michael Vuong and Veronica Gnip have also embarked on this journey. They are participating in the script writing, character development and many other parts of work. They do know better how to be kids!"
The inspiration for "Annie & Axie" emerged after the successful development of two other educational TV shows, "Life Academy" and "OnAir." Victor Migalchan shares, "When I see these wise, smart, and successful kids, it inspires me. I want the whole world to be for them."
Viewers can anticipate a high-quality animation style, a tone that is both engaging and educational, and an overall visual experience that is bound to captivate their imagination. Migalchan affirms, "As usual, 'Annie & Axie' promises quality content and deep stories. When work comes from the hearts of like-minded, faithful people, it cannot disappoint."
In sharing a behind-the-scenes anecdote, Migalchan highlights the moment of discovering Kimberly Tang, affectionately known as the "Baby Wing Chun." He recalls, "When I met with Master Clark Tang and Ms. Kimberly, I noticed the talent, and after she auditioned, we were applauding!" This delightful discovery undoubtedly added a touch of magic to the production.
"Annie & Axie" is poised to make a significant impact in the world of educational entertainment. With its unique blend of intercultural family dynamics, animal adventures, historical and biblical insights, and the extraordinary talent of Kimberly Tang and the rest of the cast, this animation series promises to be a must-watch for children and teens seeking both entertainment and education.
