Blue Ant International’s new factual series include Paranormal Survivor, Cabin Truckers, Reno My Reno, and Wild Ride, as well as documentaries Dino Hunt, How We Got Gay, Different Drummer: Celebrating Eccentrics, and Every Child Counts.

Paranormal Survivor (10×60′ HD), from Our House Media, features real-life encounters and dramatic recreations of people who claim to have met spirits.

Cabin Truckers (13×30′ HD), by Remedy Productions, follows a team of experts hauling cabins to remote locations through extremely rocky, mountainous terrain.

Meanwhile, Mountain Road Productions’ Reno My Reno (13×30′ HD) explores the world of cabin projects gone wrong with carpenter Dave Depencier and his team. Wild Ride (16×30′ HD), from Nomadic Nation, follows 15 backpackers as they attempt a 3,000km road trip across three countries in Thailand’s most iconic vehicle – the three-wheeled tuk tuk.

Earlier this month, Blue Ant International increased its catalogue of 4K nature and wildlife documentary series.
