ZDFE strengthens Screen Glue bond

German distributor ZDF Enterprises (ZDFE) has teamed up with UK production company Screen Glue to develop more docuseries together.

ZDFE and Screen Glue are developing two new projects together having previously worked on Why Size Matters (10×30′), which is about to go into production for European broadcasters ZDF and Arte.

A Day in the Life of Earth (2×50′), meanwhile, is currently in development and open to more coproduction partners. The series uses CGI animation to show the staggering changes that happen across Earth in the space of just one day.

Top Ten Wonders of the Universe (2×50′), also currently in development and open for coproduction, presents 10 top experiences in the universe as chosen by 10 of the foremost scientists, astronauts and thinkers of our time.

ZDFE will distribute all three projects on the international market.

Former BBC Science exec Jasper James founded Screen Glue in 2013 having previously worked on series such as Walking with Beasts and Walking with Dinosaurs during his time at the BBC.
