Embracing creativity and innovation, particularly in a New Zealand context, eyemagnet has also teamed up with Pukeko Pictures, a business partnership between Academy Award winner Richard Taylor the co-founder and creative lead of Weta Workshop, as well as internationally acclaimed author and children's television creator, Martin Baynton.
Pukeko Pictures has created the enchanting pre-school series, the WotWots, which follow the adventures of siblings from outer space, SpottyWot and DottyWot.
The benefit to Westpac customers is that eyemagnet's agreement with Pukeko Pictures enables them to jointly provide the WotWots to branches for display on their retail television children's channel.
