Promenade Pictures is a motion picture production company founded in 2003 by Frank Yablans, the former head of Paramount Pictures and of MGM/UA. The stated goal of the company is the creation of family-friendly films. In 2007, the company released its first film, an animated version of The Ten Commandments. It is the first in their "Epic Stories of the Bible" series. The followup, which was scheduled for release in 2009, Noah's Ark: The New Beginning, has yet to be released and its status is unknown as of 2013. Another film, Gideon's Gift, based on the novel by Karen Kingsbury, was scheduled for release in 2008.
The Note, a made-for-television film, was broadcast on the Faith and Values Network in December 2007.
Promenade partners with New Zealand-based Huhu Studios and Singapore-based iVL Animation. Promenade Pictures is also teamed with the Salem Radio Network to produce a weekly radio program based on Promenade's CD Creator Kids.
Yablans serves as Chief Executive Officer. The COO is Cindy Bond, former President of Wild Horse Entertainment.
