Everyone's Wild About Harry
October 25, 2011
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!

Solana Productions Swoops Into Sheryl Crow's
Home for Interview
LOS ANGELES – Solana Productions, Inc., videotaped an exclusive at-home interview with music superstar Sheryl Crow, in which she spoke candidly about her recovery from breast cancer, her breakup with cycling champion Lance Armstrong and her decision to adopt a baby.
"I think ultimately your biggest growth comes from actually being mad and actually experiencing disappointment, experiencing grief and sadness,” Crow said about being diagnosed with breast cancer the same week she and Armstrong ended their relationship. “I had to learn how to feel weak and vulnerable in order to feel my strength again."
An eight person crew from Solana Productions recorded the three-camera interview at Crow’s sprawling estate in the Hollywood Hills. The shoot involved an extensive lighting set-up, with a large crew, HMI lights and silks.
The interview with Crow was conducted by volleyball star/model Gabrielle Reece as part of Reece’s new on-line gal-pal network, “The HoneyLine.” The segment aired Nov. 6 on the Emmy-award-winning daytime program, “The Rachael Ray Show.”
Solana Productions, Inc., is a videotape production company based in Solana Beach, California, that serves a variety of high-profile broadcast, cable and corporate clients. More information about the company is available at www.solanaproductions.com.
The 46-year-old singer/songwriter told Reece she had to let go of her idea of having a "traditional" family to find happiness. "I had to say, OK, maybe waiting is keeping me from having what it is that I am yearning for, and so my choice was really to say, OK, I'm going to open up the door and create this space. And then all of a sudden the universe was throwing babies at me.”
Crow says she adopted her son, Wyatt, once her cancer treatments were complete. "There was a lot of cleaning and clearing and just getting healthy again and he waited until that moment to sort of say, 'I'm coming.'"
Asked about her love life, Crow said, “Typically I've always gone for someone who is a high achiever at what they do. There is a turn-on with that -- they're at the height of their game -- and they're committed to it but there are sacrifices that you are making with that."

Now, Sheryl says she’s more focused on finding someone who is her best friend and shares her parenting philosophies, and is hopeful she'll someday marry. "I believe that love is the greatest motivating emotion in life. It's either love or fear," Sheryl says. "I'd much rather be motivated by love."
After Crow was diagnosed with breast cancer, she received an unexpected phone call from Reece. "It's actually not like me because I don't like to impose myself but somehow I did have a good mutual friend with her and I felt compelled," says Gabby, who wanted to reach out to the singer with compassion and to suggest a holistic treatment -- even though they'd never met.
That kind of community and support system is what Gabby is trying to encourage with her new, online HoneyLine network. "If you plug into three or four great friends, they're like the bees on the honey line. You can always get to the honey, and I think all women really survive on this notion of a honey line because if you have three really great friends you can get some serious stuff done."
