Background

About Joss Duffield

Globally connected animation distribution specialist with a 360-degree command of content commercialisation. Leveraging an industry-spanning network of creators, studios, and buyers, I architect revenue-maximising strategies across streaming, linear, and emerging platforms. My career has been defined by: Dealmaking Precision: Negotiating pioneering deal structures that unlock untapped value in animation IP portfolios, from legacy franchises to avant-garde indie projects Pipeline Innovation: Identifying white-space opportunities in the global animation marketplace, building strategic alliances that bridge content supply chains from Tokyo to Toronto Revenue Engineering: Consistently exceeding targets through bespoke windowing strategies and platform-specific monetisation models, informed by deep buyer relationships Future-Proof Partnerships: Commercializing emerging formats (NFTs, AI-driven animation, metaverse integrations) while strengthening traditional revenue streams As a revenue-focused negotiator, I thrive on transforming creative assets into profit-driven partnerships – whether revitalising catalog properties through reboots/remasters or shepherding original projects from pitch to global rollout. My approach combines animation-specific market intelligence with a transactional rigor honed across 50+ territories.
