US-based Serenity Media Group is developing a 3D animated feature and video game based on children’s book Journey To Rainbow Island, written by Christie Hsiao.
The film and video game, aimed at both Western and Asian markets, are backed by Serenity’s $150m film fund.
Hsiao is founder and chief executive of Serenity (Dark Honeymoon).
