Customer Highlight – Blazing Griffin
Signiant works with exceptional customers, tackling unique challenges. In 2024, we featured Blazing Griffin, a Glasgow-based studio specializing in film and TV production, post-production, and game development.

At MPTS, Blazing Griffin’s Ross MacRae, Head of Operations & Product Development, joined Signiant’s Taylor Riese to discuss mastering global content creation challenges. From adapting to remote production to supporting work-from-home postproduction, Media Shuttle has been a key tool for the team to manage growing demands and complex projects.

Ross and Post-Production Supervisor Johanne Wood reunited with Taylor at the KitPlus Show to share insights from their work on the critically acclaimed series The Tattooist of Auschwitz. Blazing Griffin relied on the Signiant Platform to tackle global content creation challenges, delivering a seamless production despite its scale and complexity.
Working globally never became more evident than being asked to run post-production for a major TV series. With one new opportunity, Blazing Griffin suddenly found itself at a scale they had not been at before — they now faced a LOT more data.
Six episodes. Seven international partners. 36 final masters. 150 TB shot. 10 TB editorial proxies. 647 total transfers. Six countries. 10 months.
Yet, with the sheer volume of data, Blazing Griffin maintained their unwavering commitment to delivering top-quality content — in this case, The Tattooist of Auschwitz.
“The scale of it was bigger than we’re used to,” MacRae stated, “but we have the experience and the collaboration tools to be able to pull all of that together and make sure it runs smoothly — it’s all about the tools you choose”.
