Montreal – Distraction joins forces with Australian production and distribution company dSP Beyond, to produce Distraction’s format catalogue in Australia and New Zealand, whilst also developing new formats for the global market. The new joint venture will operate under the brand ‘dSP Beyond Distraction’. With this most recent production enterprise, Distraction is signalling its intent to expand and adapt to the ever-changing and growing demands of the international television industry. dSP Beyond, founded in 2005 as a collaboration between Denis Spencer Productions and Beyond International, has a standing throughout Australasia and the international marketplace. The partnership will ensure that Distraction will be the exclusive international distributor outside of Australia and New Zealand, for all dSP Beyond formats. Distraction has added dSP Beyond prime time ratings hit Your Money Sorted to its Mipcom slate, which was recently commissioned for a second season in New Zealand on TVOne. dSP Beyond Distraction’s first commission comes from major Australian broadcaster SBS for the hit political-reality format The Next Great Leader from CBC Canada.
