Zinc Wins $6.1m Feature Film Commission in the Middle East

 

Zinc Media Group plc (AIM: ZIN), the award-winning television, brand and audio production group, is pleased to announce that it has been commissioned to produce a 90-minute feature film for a leading institution in the Middle East, with a contract value of $6.1m. Revenue is expected to be recognised across the current and next financial year.

 

The film is a one of the largest single productions the Group has undertaken in the region. Zinc will lead on all aspects of the production delivery. The client and the nature of the work remain confidential ahead of the film's public release.

 

The award confirms Zinc as a production partner of choice for large institutions commissioning film at scale, and builds on the Group's 20-year track record in the region through The Edge in Qatar and Saudi Arabia.

 

Together with Zinc's more recent expansion into long-form content, television production and events in the region, it materially supports the Group's stated ambition to double Middle East turnover over the next three years.

 

Mark Browning, CEO of Zinc Media Group, said:

 

"This is another landmark project for Zinc and a significant step up in the scale of what we deliver in the region. To be trusted with a feature film of this ambition by one of the Middle East's leading institutions is a powerful endorsement of our creative and production capability, and of the relationships we have built over two decades in the market. It is a strong proof point that our Middle East growth strategy is working well evidence of Zinc's ability to compete and win at the top end of international production."
