9 STORY ENTERTAINMENT ADVENTURES INTO LIVE-ACTION

The Company Signs Development Deal with Les Stroud To Produce A Live-Action Kids' Version of Discovery Channel Series Survivorman
Toronto, October 2007

Canadian-based, multi-award winning production and animation studio 9 Story Entertainment is expanding into live-action production. The company has signed a development deal with wilderness-survivor-expert and filmmaker, Les Stroud, to jointly develop a live-action series for kids based on his Discovery Channel's reality series Survivorman.

"9 Story Entertainment is drawing on our extensive creative and production skills to make a mark in producing high quality live-action programming for kids," said Vince Commisso, CEO and co-partner of 9 Story Entertainment. "Our mandate has always been to create enduring brands. Les Stroud's Survivorman incorporates science, biology, geology and creativity along with very practical information that speaks to man's innate survival instinct. We look forward to working closely with Les to adapt these and similar concepts for younger viewers, creating an exciting series that will include fascinating experiences with compelling storytelling. With Les as the series guide - it is sure to be an inspiration for kids the world over."

"From the very start, I knew that 'Survivorman' was a natural for kids," said Stroud. "The timing for a kids' series of this nature is ideal. I am consistently inundated with viewer emails from kids and parents requesting visits at schools and clubs. The thanks I receive from parents whose kids have turned from video games to outdoor adventures is extremely rewarding. This is an exciting time and we look forward to working with 9 Story on bringing the fun and thrills of Survivorman to a younger and extremely eager audience."

The series will be developed jointly with Les Stroud's and partner David Brady's Survivorman Productions.
