Wiki.
Donkey Kong Country, known in Japan simply as Donkey Kong, is an animated musical television series based on the video game Donkey Kong Country from Nintendo and Rare. Co-produced by Nelvana, Medialab Studio L.A. (Season 1) and Hong Guang Animation (Season 2), in association with WIC Entertainment, with the participation of Teletoon—for Season 1, it was produced in co-production with France 2, Canal+, in association with Valar 4.
The show was first introduced in France on September 4, 1996, on France 2, on a hybrid live-action and motion-capture-animated block titled La Planète de Donkey Kong (The Planet of Donkey Kong). It later became a full series and broadcast from August 15, 1997 to July 7, 2000.
Donkey Kong Country is the first television series that has been primarily animated with motion capture technology. Several elements of the series, such as the Crystal Coconut, appeared in later Donkey Kong video games like Donkey Kong 64 (itself released three years after the show began airing on television). The second season was produced by Taiwanese CGI studio CGCG (which featured updated character models, silkier lighting and key framing), and was announced as early as May 1999.
