The idea was a puppet-real show about running a TV network and its backstage. The show had to have various items (as if produced for Shabakeye Koochak) which were adjustable based on viewers' feedback. By the end of same year, the outline was completed and proposed items and basic set were approved. In spring, Amir Soltan-Ahmadi and Azadeh Pour-Mokhtar joined the team as head of the writers and project advisor, respectively. Amir Soltan-Ahmadi created a virtual think-tank for exchange of ideas; through this, he alongside Mehdi Shah-Piri and Niusha Sadr finalized the plot and characterization. One month later, Meysam Heydarian was added to the think-tank and extra items were designed. After that, Mohammad Kheyr-Andish designed the main characters and Hedyeh Hashemi made them. To make the characters more concrete, seven practice sessions were held with the director/head of writers, voice actors, puppeteers and actors. They exchanged ideas about special characteristics of each puppet to make them and their relationships more real and believable.
