“Our primary goal for MIPTV is to
introduce the new television product available from Cinemavault to our current and new buyers.
”
A well-known provider of independent feature films to platforms across the globe, Cinemavault has added TV series to its slate this year. “The TV product selected for MIPTV can be marketed towards a wide range of audiences, giving flexibility to buyers in how they can schedule the series,” says Racquel Mesina, the executive VP of international sales and markets. “Car Jack’d 3D reaches out to the MTV generation in addition to car enthusiasts alike. It is a perfect fit for male-oriented channels, teen programming, specialty automobile slots and 3D channels.” The 3D Chef is a health-oriented cooking show. And The Traveling Trio is a children’s educational travel show. “We hope to reach out to new channels who are seeking such product while maintaining our relationships with those buyers who continue buying features for broadcast,” Mesina adds. Other features in the mix include Somewhere Tonight and When Harry Tries to Marry.
