El Chavo is an animated series based in the TV series of same name, created by Roberto Gomez Bolanos.

After several years of successful reruns, Televisa launched simultaneously in all Latin America an animated version of the program made by Ánima Estudios on October 21, 2006. As a background, a 3D computer model was used, though for the characters, 2D drawings were used, created with Flash technology. A huge program was made to launch it in on a scenario made to imitate the computerized background. Some things about the original program were reminiscenced and they showed how the animated series was made.

Plot Summary

The cartoon also allowed depicting the children to the right scale. Previously, since the children were played by adults in the live action version, the feel was given to the character through their way of dressing, speaking, and mainly through giving them oversized toys. However, this was not the first attempt to animate it. Previously, during the credits, claymation sequences could be watched.

In this animated series, La Chilindrina doesn't appear due to on-going disputes between María Antonieta de las Nieves and Roberto Gómez Bolaños on rights of "La Chilindrina". De las Nieves feels she should be entitled to monetary compensation if "La Chilindrina", the character she brought to life in the television series, appears in the animated series. Roberto Gómez Bolaños claims that since he created the character (De las Nieves only portrayed it), only he owns the rights to such character. This dispute still hasn't been resolved.

Cast and Characters

The series was produced in the studios of AF The Dubbing House, directed by Marina Huerta, a Mexican actress.
