Kideo Incorporated

Background: Kideo Productions, Inc. (known professionally as Kideo Incorporated) is a small, little-known children's video distributor that develops and markets photo-personalization technologies and products. The Company's products are available through toy, gift, and general merchandise catalogs, as well as selected retail sites on the Internet and through various direct response venues. Located in New York, Kideo has been the leading brand in child’s personalized videos for nearly a decade. The vision has always been to put children into their favorite shows making the child the star of the show (respectively owned by PixFusion LLC). The company PixFusion LLC, which now owns the Kideo brand, has taken this concept to a higher level using its patented technology to incorporate children as the star of new videos with some of their favorite cartoon characters such as Dora the Explorer. Nearly 400,000 of these personalized videos have been sold to date, a true testament to the popularity of this product. Kideo is a children’s brand dedicated to putting smiles on children’s faces. They are still in business today (only this time, they became K.D. Novelties).
