Sinking Ship Entertainment is heading to Cannes with a slate of kids’ shows that includes additional seasons of the Emmy-nominated adventure series Dino Dana.

Dino Dana is the next installment of the dinosaur franchise that first began with the international hit Dino Dan. “We are also about to go into production on the feature film,” says Marilyn Kynaston, the company’s head of sales and distribution.

Geared toward young viewers between the ages of 8 and 12, The Unlisted is a brand-new live-action adventure series on offer from Sinking Ship at MIPTV. The show, which is being made by Aquarius Films (Lion), is in production this year for delivery in 2019.

In addition, there is Endlings, a new live-action and CGI-blended series from J.J. Johnson (Annedroids, Dino Dan) that is meant for 8- to 12-year-old children. That show is also in production this year. Rank the Prank is also for 8- to 12-year-olds. Produced for CBBC and Nickelodeon, Sinking Ship is looking for free-TV and SVOD partners for Rank the Prank.

Sinking Ship is also presenting the stop-motion preschool series Scout and the Gumboot Kids. The 30×11-minute series is produced by Imagine Create Productions.
