  • Realscreen: German distributor Autentic orders new factual series from Go Button Media

    German distributor and prodco Autentic has commissioned four factual series from Toronto’s Go Button Media, expanding their existing partnership.

    The Munich-based company will help finance the series and trigger additional funding as the commissioner. Autentic will, in turn, hold exclusive territory rights and worldwide distribution rights.

    The four titles are Deadly Science (6 x 52 min.; pictured), about scientists who have died in the pursuit of knowledge, such as Marie Curie; Mapping Disaster (6 x 52 min.), which explores how catastrophes might be avoided in the future; Spies that Mapped the World (4 x 47 min.), about conspiracies around the Cold War; and a second season of Colossal Machines (6 x 45 min.), which looks at the inner workings of large-scale machinery. All four series will be produced this year.

    The first season of Colossal Machines was acquired by Super Channel for broadcast in Canada. The channel has also served as a commissioner for Go Button Media, ordering original series such as Secret Nazi Expeditions and Forgotten Frontlines.

    “The cooperation with Go Button is one of the best examples for our content strategy, as it confirms how valuable it is for us to build long-term partnerships for our channel business as well as our production and distribution activities,” said Alexandra Böhm, Autentic’s head of international coproduction, in a statement.

    “Our continued expanding relationship with Autentic not only strengthens our global business, it also fuels our creative output by challenging us to develop and produce exciting new angles on high demand genres,” added Go Button Media executive producer Daniel Oron.

    Toronto-based Go Button Media has announced that Super Channel in Canada has commissioned its new historical docuseries, Secret Nazi Expeditions, with Cineflix Rights on board as its international distribution partner with a focus on pre-sales.

    “Super Channel has been an incredibly supportive broadcaster to our business this year, so we couldn’t be more pleased to move into production with them on this second history series,” Daniel Oron, Go Button Media’s co-founder and series executive producer, said in a release. “We are also thrilled to be working with Cineflix Rights for the first time. The team was extremely enthusiastic about this new series from the first conversation and, given Cineflix’s impressive track record and extensive international network, I have every confidence that Secret Nazi Expeditions will soon find a raft of excellent homes across the world.”

    Secret Nazi Expeditions is set to begin production soon. It’s Go Button’s second Super Channel Fuse Original commission this year, following the World War Two series Forgotten Frontlines (6 x 60 minutes), co-commissioned by SBS Australia and Off The Fence.
