Faith Hill, Tim McGraw, Merle Haggard and Hank Williams Jr. are among the country music stars Solana Productions taped this summer for the Great American Country cable channel. Solana was backstage with Hill and her husband McGraw at the Pantages Theater in Los Angeles for the opening of her summer tour. Our cameras rolled as Haggard received a lifetime achievement award from the Country Music Association at his performance in Anaheim, California. Solana also shot behind the scenes of Hank Williams Jr.’s opening music video for “Monday Night Football.”

Solana Productions has been named West Coast bureau for HD Net, the high-definition channel founded by multi-millionaire businessman Mark Cuban. Shoots this summer have ranged from hula dancing in Hawaii to a grilled cheese-eating contest to the San Diego mayor’s race.

Solana Productions has acquired two video cameras to serve its ever-expanding client list. Our new Sony high-def camera is constantly busy. Our new Panasonic 24P camera provides the film-like look preferred by Paramount TV’s “The Insider.”

Solana also has two D-600 Betacams and several DV cams. We've also recently acquired a camera jib to spice up those mundane b-rolls segments.
