EXCLUSIVE: British producer Honeybird Studios has unveiled a roster of creative partners it plans to work with to retain IP.

Those working with the Newcastle-based producer comprises UK’s Strongest Man maker FilmNova, Ninja Warrior line producer ATS, London’s Gramafilm, Andrew Cole Bulgin’s Tinkled Pink, former eOne UK casting exec Claudia Gueretta and Toronto formats producer Ready Everybody.

The plan is to develop and produce unscripted formats that will be co-owned between Honeybird and the respective partner, with their separate strengths combining to make stronger creative propositions and cross-genre collabs.

Former Whizz Kid Entertainment Managing Director Lisa Chapman launched Honeybird in 2023 and became its CEO, teaming with Managing Directors Derek Drennan and Stew Batt to create a production hub in the North East of England.
