Catherine McCormick, VP Acquisitions, Cineflix Rights, said: “Rock Oyster has been a fantastic partner for Cineflix Rights, consistently delivering high quality content which our team has successfully sold around the world. Our funding model includes working with producers to identify and back ideas which we believe will work internationally, and that’s why we had no hesitation in investing in a further 32 hours of content from the Rock Oyster team and extending our relationship to include a development deal.”
