Hollywood Comes to Russell Video

March 2009

One of the big stories to hit Michigan this year is the tax incentives that are available for filmmakers who decide to shoot their productions in our great state.

One such production taking advantage of the Michigan Film Office’s incentives is the independent feature “Betty Ann Waters” starring Hillary Swank, Sam Rockwell and Minnie Driver. The entire movie is being shot in the Ann Arbor area.

When it came time to do make up tests on both Ms. Swank and Mr. Rockwell, the producers chose Russell Video for their location. Our building and 1200 ft. studio served as the perfect location to park their trailers, set up their gear and test away….

Confidentiality of the production prohibits us from posting pictures of the actors, but here are a few shots of the production trucks, studio, camera and the stand-ins.

If you are an independent filmmaker or director looking to do make-up tests or any other type of work that needs studio rental, please give Russell Video a call! To learn more about renting our studio, click here.


Renewal Ministries’ “Choice” is Russell Video

March 2009

Founded in 1980 and based in Ann Arbor, Renewal Ministries has worked in harmony with Catholic Church leadership to carry out the work of renewal and evangelization in North America as well as in more than 25 countries around the world.

Their television show The Choices We Face, begun in 1985 is currently the longest running Catholic television program in the world. It is available on five continents and is distributed by national and local cable networks, independent broadcast stations and international satellites. Nationally, the show can be seen on the Eternal World Television Network (EWTN) Tuesday evenings at 6:00 PM EST and Friday Mornings at 6:30 AM EST.

Each week Ralph Martin, on this weekly television series, proclaims the basic truths of Christianity. He urges repentance and faithfulness to scripture; he emphasizes the need for all to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ; he imparts the courage to stand firm over the long haul as together we cope with an increasingly secular society.

Russell Video has provided video duplication services for the show for 20 years. For the past seven years, RVS has produced the show open and the “booklet” spot that appears at the end of every broadcast.

We are pleased to announce that starting with the 2010 season; The Choices We Face will be shot, edited and duplicated exclusively by Russell Video. Shooting for the 2010 season will begin in the Fall of 2009.

We are very happy that Renewal Ministries “chose” Russell Video. We are looking forward to this partnership and are excited to take the show to “the next level.”


Russell Video Goes Racin’ with the #6 Con-way Freight Ford F-150 and the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series

February 2009

For the second straight year, Russell Video has teamed up with Con-way Freight to produce a hospitality video for NASCAR Camping World Truck Series driver Colin Braun and the #6 Con-way Freight Ford F-150!

Colin spent the day at Con-way Freight’s headquarters in Ann Arbor in January and took a few minutes out of his time to answer a few questions on-camera for this year’s promo.
