John Lasseter

Former chief creative officer of Pixar, whose principles of storytelling have shaped modern animation.

Content Partners LLC has announced a strategic licensing agreement with GammaTime, a prominent microdrama streaming platform, to convert several episodes of the widely acclaimed true crime series "Forensic Files" into a vertical video format specifically optimized for smartphone consumption. This initiative aims to introduce the long-running docuseries to a new generation of mobile-native viewers, showcasing 15 handpicked, captivating cases from its extensive archive.

"Forensic Files," a groundbreaking program in the true crime genre, initially aired from 1996 to 2011 across various networks including TLC, Court TV, and TruTV, and later saw a revival with "Forensic Files II" until 2023. The series is renowned for its in-depth exploration of how forensic science plays a crucial role in resolving complex criminal investigations. GammaTime, launched in 2025 with significant backing from investors such as Alexis Ohanian and Kris Jenner, has quickly established itself as a leader in vertical content, particularly within the true crime niche.

This partnership represents a forward-thinking approach to content distribution, acknowledging the evolving landscape of media consumption. By adapting "Forensic Files" for vertical viewing, both companies are embracing technological advancements to deliver engaging narratives in a format that resonates with contemporary audiences, making the compelling world of forensic science more accessible and immediate than ever before.

The collaboration between Content Partners LLC and GammaTime exemplifies innovation in media, bringing a beloved series to new platforms and audiences. This move not only revitalizes a classic but also highlights the dynamic potential of digital streaming and vertical video to captivate viewers and broaden the reach of quality storytelling in an ever-changing media environment.
