"Colossal Machines"
As Go Button Media gears up for a record production year in 2022, the Canadian company is pleased to announce the promotion of four valued team members. Robin Webster, previously director of development, has been promoted to vice president of development and casting, while Sarah Hewitt, previously manager of development, is now director of development.
Webster and Hewitt will be driving the development of new IP and talent for the business, including work on the recently announced series "Forgotten Frontlines", "Colossal Machines", "Mysteries of The Ancient Dead", "Call Me Mother" S2, and "Secret Societies: In The Shadows".
Stephanie Baird moves from line producer to director of production and Rebecca Costa is promoted to director of post production, having previously held the title of post supervisor. Baird (line producer for Go Button’s "Secret Nazi Bases", "The Animal Within", "Phantom Signals", "A World Without NASA" and "Call Me Mother") will oversee the company’s production slate both in Canada and internationally, while Costa will supervise the expansion of the company’s edit team, post schedules, network deliveries and systems.
Pushing the production
Go Button’s slate of confirmed productions for 2022 is more than double the number of hours produced in 2021 and includes both returning series such as "Call Me Mother" and new titles including "Mysteries of The Ancient Dead”. This new year will see the business deliver its largest and most varied slate of factual and entertainment shows for domestic and international clients.
Go Button’s founders and executive producers, Daniel Oron and Natasha Ryan said in a joint statement: “As Go Button continues to find international success and growth, we are thrilled that this outstanding team of production professionals, who have been with us since our earliest projects, will continue to drive the company into a thriving 2022 and a dynamic new chapter of production and partnerships.”
