Big Table Media, the production company behind the Crashers franchise on Diy among others, has been acquired by longtime executives Wendi Fontes and Geoff Davis. Fontes and Davis have assumed majority ownership from co-founder and managing partner Peter Holmes, who will remain with the company, and co-founder Bill Swan, who has announced his retirement. Fontes and Davis will lead the company as executive producers and co-owners.
“Peter and Bill not only built a strong foundation for us to build from, but also created a unique company culture which sets us up for success,” said Fontes. “We’re excited to have this great opportunity to do what we love, in our home city, with a great team alongside of us.”
Under the deal, Fontes and Davis have hired former Grb Studios executive Megan Reeves as Svp of Development.
Fontes started with the company in 2008, climbing the ranks to VP of Productions and Operations.
