Okay that is a bit of a long title but it communicates the topic succinctly. If you’ve been paying attention to any Rush related news feeds recently, you’ll have seen that there was a flurry of traffic for this story starting on Tuesday. This is fantastic news for the Banger Films team and Rush who will see their film distributed across a much broader geographical range.
The Toronto based film production, distribution and consulting company Tricon, is also on the hook to distribute the Metal Evolution series which is currently in production at various spots around the Metal Globe.
Here is a piece from www.channelcanada.com
Tricon Films & Television, one of North America’s strongest independent production and distribution companies, is proud to be working with award-winning production company Banger Films. With this new relationship, Tricon has acquired the international television rights to the recently theatrically released documentary RUSH: BEYOND THE LIGHTED STAGE, which chronicles the legendary band over the past 40 years. Tricon is also set to distribute METAL EVOLUTION: THE SERIES (8 X 60), which is slated for the spring of 2011 on VH1 Classics. “Banger Films founders Scot McFayden and Sam Dunn bring a wealth of talent, creativity and heart to their projects,” said Andrea Gorfolova, President of Tricon Films & Television. “Tricon is thrilled to be joining creative forces and distributing their products with the same passion and dedication.”
