At this week’s EFM in Berlin, Evolutionary is launching international sales on two new projects. Family animation MiBots hails from Wise Blue Studios and producers Nathalie Martinez and former Disney executive Jamie Thomason. Sci-fi adventure Persephone from writer-director Jeffrey Morris will shoot this summer and is being co-produced by VFX outfit Pixomondo (Game Of Thrones).
The company is also looking to ramp up its UK distribution activities one year after it launched its releasing arm. Looking For Lennon and Vengeance will be released in April and May, respectively, as the company aims to release a film every week in the UK through the end of the year.
Evolutionary’s slate includes documentary Written By Mrs Bach: Broken Silence and Australian horror Out Of The Shadows.
