Dr. Luis Ruilope, one of Spain's top cardiologists.

The Nelson Group LLC trusted RedHill Media this week to produce an interview with one of Spain’s top  cardiologists, Dr. Luis Ruilope.

This interview will be distributed on the CMER web site along with many others that have been recorded around the world with top medical experts.

RedHill Media backed up the tapes digitally before shipping them via FedEx to New York.

We love offering these sort of quick and efficient turnkey solutions!

RedHill Media's Phillip Stark runs camera during a studio interview at Telecinco

Bruno White Entertainment in Orlando, Florida recently hired RedHill Media to execute a series of  interviews at Spains #1 private television station, Telecinco. The interviews, contracted by Microsoft, covered Telecinco’s use of their Silverlight web streaming software.

BWE producer Bob Johannsen had this to say about RedHill Media’s work:

“We were very happy with RedHill Media on our recent shoot in Madrid. The production went very smoothly and stayed on schedule despite the usual myriad of last-minute changes that we needed to adapt to.  Ben, Phil, and the team always took the extra steps to make sure the results were not only good, but perfect.  For us, that puts them well in the top tier of the many fine production companies we have worked with internationally.  I’m happy to recommend them to others, and for my next shoot in Madrid, I hope RedHill will be there to help again.”

In April 2009, RedHill Media worked as local producers for an American Airlines video promoting Madrid as a fantastic tourist destination. Director Tracy Helms of Unleaded and his cameraman Marc Andre Chartrand captured amazing images of local stores, museums, restaurants, and much  more using the new Canon 5D Mark II cameras, while Barcelona freelancer and video artist Dan Dubassy focused on recording breathtaking time lapses of the Spanish capital.

RedHill Media sourced gear, acquired permits, hired additional crew, handled shoot logistics and transportation, and other production fixing services.

It was an awesome shoot and we hope to see the Unleaded team back in Madrid again soon!

To Whom It May Concern:

My name is Jacob David, director and producer of Two Toledos, a
documentary about the first sister cities relationship in the world.

The film premiered at the Teatro De Rojas in Toledo Spain on May 30,
2006, and will premiere in Toledo, Ohio in September. It will also be
viewed on regional PBS in Ohio with a viewership of over 1 million
people.

Phillip acted as production manger and interpreter, as well as script
consultant and backup cameraman. He also improvised on a daily basis to help us overcome unforeseen obstacles. Of special mention, was is outstanding job representing us on live radio in Spain.

Phillip was able to keep the production on schedule and moving smoothly during the production months in Spain. His services were invaluable in helping us get the filming done on time and on budget.

I consider Phillip an extremely valuable asset both on and off set. He
is sharp, independent, and needs little instruction to make things happen.

Phillip was always polite and eager to help. I recommend him in the
highest terms to future employers.

To Whom It May Concern,

This letter is to highly recommend Phillip Stark for his work as camera operator, for his attitude and energy as a team member, and for any other work he performs.

Phillip worked with me as camera operator on the short documentary ‘From Tree to Tree’ (2005). The film has been selected by various film festivals: Festival de Aguilar de Campoo, Festival de Palencia, Festvial de Huesca, Festival de Cine Strasbourgh (Francia), Cinequest online (San Jose California., USA). And Sumimagen (Zamora), in which it
received special mention for cinematography.

I very highly recommend him to future employers and hope to work with him again myself.

Sincerely,

Belén González Blanco

To Whom it May Concern-

I am writing in reference to my work with Phillip Stark as a freelance
video journalist (VJ) out of Madrid. Snippies is based in New York, but
employs a worldwide network of video journalists and DV camera crews.

The nature of our work requires me as a producer to place much trust and confidence in our local crews and VJs because rarely do our budgets allow for a producer on-site. In our work with Phillip, he has
displayed an extremely professional attitude and proficiency in his DV
shooting and interviewing.

Snippies’ projects often operate on a very quick turnaround schedule
with hard deadlines. Phillip has been able to overcome shipping
obstacles and other issues to always meet every deadline perfectly. He
is a skilled videographer with a knack for talking to people and
producing thoughtful, in-depth interviews.

It has been a pleasure working professionally with Phillip, and I wish we had the opportunity
to use him for each and every international shoot we do!

To Whom It May Concern:

I’m pleased to write this letter of reference for Phillip Stark.

Phillip was hired to shoot a series of Spanish landmarks for a
promotional spot The Nightingale Company is producing. Before, during
and after he exhibited professionalism, enthusiasm and courtsey,
including going above and beyond the call of duty.

The footage Phillip delivered was creative, beautiful, and more than
enough for our editor to work with. We, at The Nightingale Company would not hesitate to hire him again.

Overall, Phillip’s energy, determination, and positive attitude were a
delight to work with and we wish him all the best in his future
endeavors.

To Whom It May Concern:

I am a host and producer of “Your Travel Guide”, produced by Discovery Production Group for the Travel Channel in the United States. Our fast paced, single-camera show needs crew members who are flexible, quick-thinking and on-the-ball. Working as my camera-man, translator and all-around Guy Friday for an episode on Madrid, Phillip Stark surpassed expectations. He did a wonderful job.

Phillip is dedicated and has a positive attitude. He went out of his way to introduce me to the local culture and generously offered the use of his connections in Madrid to help the shoot. At one point I mused that it would be nice to get an overhead shot of one street scene. A quick phone call later, we were shooting from his friend’s balcony.

I highly recommend hiring Phillip. He gets things done and is a pleasure to work with.

To whom it may concern:

We have been very fortunate to cross path with Mr. Phillip Stark when we were looking for a camera operator for our “hurry-up-and-wait” nature shoot in the south of Spain recently.

Phillip has been an above and beyond the line resource for us. More than a translator. A great operator. Avid and eager to learn and fast. He operated a Panasonic HVX-900 with ease although he had never used it he made his research prior to shoot. A good talented worker.

Our shoot goal was to actually film a pregnant mare giving birth in the wild. A very rare thing. So our schedule was all over and open.

Five o’clock in the morning on a beach in Tarifa to monitor a mare that was about to give birth and then the rest of the day we went and roamed around the south of Spain (Jerez de la Frontera, etc.) and filmed horses on either beaches, pine groves by the beach, dunes, fields, mountains and wild horses. Long days. Every morning Mr. Stark was up and got the gear ready and was in his trade mark cheery mood. We really hit it off a real pleasure.

I would strongly recommend him for any type of shoot (HD/SD). The only problem with Phillip is that he grows on you and you just want to have him for you… Should anyone have any questions I remain available at all time.

Sincerely yours,

Working with Phillip Stark during The StyleFyle shoot in Madrid was a
pleasure! From his prompt response to my initial inquiry, to the generous
offer of pre-production support, to his detailed organization of the film
crew, I knew my show was in professional hands. And having someone with an
in depth knowledge of Madrid, as well as the ability to communicate fluently
in both English and Spanish made for an efficient use of our limited time. I
look forward to working with Phil again on my next episode in Spain.

To Whom It May Concern:

It is my pleasure to recommend Phillip Stark as a potential hire for documentary pre-production work. I am an associate producer with Discovery Channel Canada. Our production came to know Phillip when he fulfilled the role of production coordinator and Spanish fixer for one of our 1-hour shows in the Discovery series, “Megaworld.” Phillip distinguished himself by his enthusiasm for the production and ambition to coordinate and confirm shoot details despite the challenges of our very tight production schedule.

Overall, Phillip is most appreciated for his diligent work ethic. He secured the filming logistics on two of our seven stories, talking to the contacts on behalf of us and gaining their trust and approval to allow us to film. When asked to scout out one story location in Barcelona, Phillip not only charmed the contacts and confirmed the shoot details, but also filmed video and met with potential interviewees, then uploading the video to the Internet for us to review here in Canada. It was unquestionably helpful for research purposes and for gaining a greater understanding of the location.

Phillip also fulfilled additional roles, [not limited to the following]: assisting with speedy translations of insurance documents and Internet links;, researching crew transportation and hotel options; assisting in obtaining insurance policies and film permits; and researching backup story ideas. He did everything in the timeliest of manners.

I am happy to recommend Phillip to anyone looking for a diligent and experienced production assist, especially one fluent in Spanish and English.

Please feel free to contact me should you have any further questions.

Yours Sincerely,

If you’re thinking about working with Redhill Media* for you production needs in
Madrid, just do it. I had a challenging three day shoot in multiple
locations for an Investigation Discovery documentary series this fall, but
Phillip and his team made it all work smoothly.

They know Production, they know Spanish and they know Madrid. I threw a
number of curves at them and they kept coming back with good options. I’ve
worked with fixers all over the world and the guys at Redhill Media*  were the
best. I can’t recommend them highly enough.

We’ve been getting a lot of requests lately for Madrid stock footage, so we’ve decided to stop talking about it and just go out and do it! The result? We now have a significant library of HDV (30i) video covering pretty much all of Madrid’s top landmarks  under beautiful weather conditions including El Prado, the Reina Sofia museum,  the Thyssen-Bornemisza museum, the Royal Palace, Plaza Mayor, Puerta Del Sol, Gran Via as well as images of bustling Madrid (people eating, drinking, walking, etc). And of course, we have images of tapas and flamenco!

If you are interested in progressive or full HD footage, we are currently out there shooting it – just contact us for more info and we’d be happy to get the shots you need!
