Our latest San Diego video productions have put us hot on the trail of Britain's Prince Harry, as he criss-crosses the county in search of burgers, brew.......and yes, babes! The 27-year-old military officer is stationed in nearby El Centro for two months of Apache helicopter training. But on weekends, he's been making the 90-mile trek west for fun and nightlife in Coronado, downtown San Diego and....our very own Solana Beach! Your intrepid San Diego field producer and San Diego video crew have been way ahead of the competition, scoring interviews, photos and video for TV's "The Insider," several days before "Good Morning America," "Today" and People Magazine joined the story. HarryWatch -- definitely not a royal pain!

Client Video Production experiences...
Solana Productions, Inc., has videotaped a live performance by the rock group Hinder that is currently being delivered to fans via cell phones.
The four-camera San Diego music video production, recorded at San Diego’s 4th and B nightclub, featured hundreds of screaming, slam-dancing fans enjoying the post-grunge group’s music.
Solana crews captured every electrifying moment of the band’s 10-song set on Panasonic video cameras recording in 24p. One camera isolated on the performers on stage, while two others were situated in the pit in front of the band. The fourth camera rolled from the back of the room.
Solana sound technicians used a variety of microphones and mixers to record Hinder’s performance and fan response.
The result was a raucous rock-and-roll show experienced from every conceivable angle.
Solana cameras also recorded backstage interviews with band members Austin Winkler (vocals), Joe “Blower” Garvey (guitar), Mark King (guitar), Mike Rodden (bass), and Cody Hanson (drums).
The video is now available on the Sprint cell phone network.
The Oklahoma-based band is receiving media attention for re-energizing the hard rock scene, and developing a loyal fan following. Hinder was recently profiled in several newspapers, including, “The Los Angeles Times.”
Solana Productions, Inc., is a San Diego video production company that serves broadcast, cable and corporate clients throughout Southern California. The company shoots in all video formats, including Sony XDHD and Panasonic HD.
