Red Arrow moves for Wild Bunch exec

Global distributor Red Arrow International has appointed an executive from Wild Bunch Germany as its VP of scripted acquisitions.

Amelie von Kienlin will be responsible for all scripted acquisitions for the German distributor’s slate from September 1 and will report to Irina Ignatiew, the co-MD of Red Arrow International who oversees global scripted distribution.

Von Kienlin previously worked as head of coproductions at Wild Bunch Germany and before that was head of programme acquisitions for international sales at Munich-based sales outfit Telepool.

It’s the latest staff change at Red Arrow International, the international sales arm of ProSiebenSat.1’s Red Arrow Entertainment Group.

Ignatiew and Henrik Pabst were promoted to deputy MD’s at the firm in December, before being upped again a month later to lead the company following Jens Richter’s move to FremantleMedia.

In April this year Axel Boehm was promoted to senior VP of sales for Europe having originally joined the firm in 2005.
