Federation Aligns with Former Shine France COO in Unscripted Push

Federation Entertainment has teamed up with Bouchra Réjani, former COO of Shine France, to launch the new production venture WeMake.

The new production company will work across unscripted, scripted and digital content. It complements Federation’s current production activities, which has primarily been in the scripted space. Federation currently has 12 series in production, including the second season of Netflix France’s first original series, Marseille.

Réjani commented: “I’m so proud to join such an incredible team. We share the same values and taste for high-end production value content. Providing the audience with the best entertainment content is an amazing challenge. Gathering the best talents for scripted and unscripted content will be eased by this key partnership with Federation Entertainment, the fastest growing indie and most successful company in France.”

Pascal Breton, the president and founder of Federation, said: “Federation has built strong ties with the market’s top platforms in the U.S. and Europe, and this is why I’m delighted to support Bouchra’s efforts with WeMake to create new formats for both French broadcasters and international platforms.”
