Amcomri Film Partners LP (“AFP”) has announced the creation of a multi-million-dollar film fund. The fund will provide support to independent producers seeking financing and international distribution for their films.
AFP has recently provided funding for the re-imagining of the David Cronenberg film, Rabid, directed by the Soska Sisters and starring Laura Vandervoort as well as for Wonderfilm Media’s Disturbing the Peace starring Guy Pearce.
Larry Howard of Amcomri Film Partners said, “The launch of our own Fund is a natural extension of our fast-growing Entertainment division. Having already partially financed five productions over the past few months, the Fund will enable us to extend our interests in the creation and ownership of content to feed our downstream distribution businesses around the world.”
“I am also pleased to be working alongside Michael Walker and Andy Lyon who will bring a wealth of production and distribution experience to our upcoming investments.”

Simian Gets An Evolutionary Boost For Collaboration, Reveals “Teams”
Simian, the showreel-building, review & approval, and production asset management platform used globally by creative leaders, is kicking off this fall season with a substantial leap forward for collaboration and project management – with more updates on the way during the holidays!
The new feature, aptly dubbed “Teams”, makes it easier than ever for users to give project responsibilities to team members and clients alike. “You can never have too many options when it comes to permission levels,” says Jay Brooks, Simian’s Chief Technology Officer. “Teams provides a streamlined way to assign multiple users to a project at once.”
“Teams are very powerful, but creating one is effortless,” Brian Atton, Simian’s Chief Operating Officer explains. “Simply enter a Team name, add members, and then apply the newly made Team to any desired project. You can even invite temporary guests without changing settings for other projects or needing to create a new Team.”
“We love helping our clients by providing efficient tools to improve their workflow, and this has been a frequently requested feature as of late,” shares Kellie Atton, Head of Sales at Simian. “It feels great to get Teams out into the wild because I know it’s going to be tremendously helpful to everyone who uses it”.
Teams is now available exclusively to Simian’s enterprise clients. Simian plans to release more product upgrades and enhancements during Q4 2024 and 2025 for enterprise and non-enterprise users, continuing its ongoing evolution as the industry’s leading production asset management solution.
