"Dino Dana", an Emmy Award-winning series created and directed by Sinking Ship’s J.J. Johnson, follows Dana, a 10-year-old girl who loves dinosaurs. Her life changes forever when she's given a Dino Field Guide, which not only teaches her new things about dinosaurs, but gives her the power to imagine dinosaurs into real life.

The series premiered in 2017 and was followed by the theatrical release in June 2020 of "Dino Dana The Movie", produced for Prime Video and TVOkids with the participation of Téléfilm Canada, Shaw Rocket Fund and Ontario Creates. On top of an expansion to China, "Dino Dana" recently secured additional broadcast partners in Latin America, including Canal Once in Mexico as well as Señal Colombia and Canal Capital in Colombia.
