Origin and development[edit]
The original concept for Juana la Iguana was created in the 1990s by Colombian creator Tania Gilinski-Seidl.[3] Living in Venezuela, Gilinski-Seidl then brought together her partners Amanda Quijano and Anita Katz and formed Juana Producciones to create a series of home videos for the Venezuelan market.[1] After gaining wide distribution for the original videos in Venezuela, Iguana Producciones would go on to produce the TV series.[3]
