Rooster Teeth Expands Distribution Partnership With Cinedigm To Represent Key Properties For Distribution At MIPCOM Rooster Teeth Hit Series Day 5, RWBY, and Crunch Time Available For International Distribution
LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Pioneering entertainment company Rooster Teeth is expanding its long and successful distribution partnership with Cinedigm (NASDAQ: CIDM) to include international territories, kicking off MIPCOM in Cannes (Oct. 17-20). The companies are seeking international digital, home video and linear television deals for three hit Rooster Teeth series - Day 5, RWBY, and Crunch Time, all of which live on Rooster Teeths rapidly growing subscription video on demand platform (SVOD), FIRST. At the annual international content convention, the companies will be taking meetings with local distribution outlets from Europe, South America, Asia and Australia.
Our audience has been thrilled with the new premium content weve been releasing on FIRST, the Rooster Teeth SVOD platform, said Matt Hullum, CEO of Rooster Teeth. From the apocalyptic drama Day 5 to the hilarious sci-fi comedy Crunch Time to the breakout anime hit RWBY, were excited to share this content with new audiences around the world.
Day 5
Day 5, the award-winning, six-part long-form dramatic series from Rooster Teeth, is set in the immediate aftermath of a fatal sleep epidemic. After a fortuitous drug bender saves his life, addict Jake ventures out, unaware that most of the world already died in their beds. Battling sleepless fatigue and encroaching delirium, Jake teams with a scrappy teenager, an overnight doctor, and a red-eye pilot to search for answers and just maybe find a way to sleep again. Day 5 presents a unique vision of the apocalypse that fuses serial drama and thriller around a human story of survival and redemption. Season 1 of Day 5 premiered in 2016 on Rooster Teeth FIRST. This October, Day 5 beat out Grace Helbig and Hannah Harts Electra Woman and Dyna Girl to take the Streamy Award for best Sci-Fi or Action series.

The clock is ticking for this secret government agency to clean up the mess...and the students dont know what the hell they did to tear open the fabric of space and time. The solution? T- tell these government operatives EVERY illegal thing theyve done in the lab Season 1 of Crunch Time premiered in 2016 on Rooster Teeth FIRST.
