Two Rivers partners with All3Media International
Two Rivers Media has established a strategic partnership with leading independent distributor all3media. The collaboration will see all3media international supporting the development of a selection of new projects – scripted and non-scripted – from Two Rivers and handling rights to those titles in the global market.
The first non-scripted series to be distributed by all3media International is Escape to the Chateau: Make Do & Mend – which aired on Channel 4 this year to excellent ratings.
Rachel Job, SVP Non-Scripted Content at all3media international commented, “I had the pleasure of working with Alan in his role at STV and am delighted to join forces with him once again to expand the reach of Two Rivers Media’s exciting roster of upcoming content. In a short space of time, Two Rivers has succeeded in attracting an impressive level of investment and talent, and we’re looking forward to working with such a high-calibre team in what will be a truly collaborative relationship.”
Alan Clements, Managing Director at Two Rivers Media, added, “Establishing strong strategic alliances in the industry is a key element of realising our ambition to build Two Rivers Media into a production powerhouse. The global demand for premium UK content is greater than ever across all genres and I am delighted to say that our development slate is attracting a lot of interest from UK and international broadcasters.
“We are incredibly proud of what we have achieved since our launch but have known for some time that we needed a strategic partner to help us accelerate our growth. It swiftly became clear that all3media international’s extensive expertise and contacts would be the perfect fit to ensure that the projects we partner on reach their maximum potential worldwide.”
