The studio caters for actual production, real music and film production as well as training for artists.
The CS then met with Invention Studios President Nicholas Weinstock, as he sought to progress the agreement signed with the production house on film production and content development for Kenyan film makers.
Later, CS Ababu met the Grammy Recording Academy CEO Panos A. Panay, on the sidelines of the Annual Grammy Awards ceremony, where they held talks on the progression of an ongoing MOU with the Grammy’s for the promotion of Kenya’s content globally.
