Pieter Rieck from Blond Productions Blond Productions have taken ownership of their grandMA full size and grandMA Ultralite consoles. This has been a big step for the young company who really are making things happen in the industry.
“They have been waiting to do this for years,” said Duncan Riley from DWR Distribution. “It’s their first big desk and they chose grandMA. We would like to take this opportunity to congratulate them.”
For Blond Productions, owning a sizeable console was always part of the plan, but they did practise caution, waiting two years before making the purchase. “Eventually the right show came round and we had the budget to buy straight away,” said Christiaan Ballot from Blond Productions. “The grandMA full size will be used for a new television game show for MTN titled Blasto Ball.” Blond Productions will also be using the console for another upcoming television production, this time from India, titled 100%. The Production is set to be aired internationally.
“Everyone is very excited about the grandMA,” added Christiaan. “Peter Rieck and Ryan Lombard think it’s an awesome console. Duncan has always helped us and when we were ready, he was able to make a deal for us. It’s all about baby steps.”
