Together with animating genius and blood brother Dave Carter, Backseat Rebel is producing BIN CHICKENS for ABC TV and iView, after being selected for funding as part of Screen Australia's Fresh Blood initiative.

The 3-part animated comedy follows the adventures of three ibises who live life to the max in the jewel of Sydney's crown, Darling Harbour. Perhaps the most maligned and misunderstood animal in Australia, the garbage-scavenging, picnic-stealing ibis is well overdue for a sympathetic makeover, and BIN CHICKENS promises to deliver.

Voiced by comedians Sam Campbell, Veronica Milsom and Dave Eastgate, the series is directed by Dave Carter and written by Nikos Andronicos and will be released in mid 2017.
