CORPORATE AMERICA vs. ROCK n ROLL:

After 29 weeks of a strict NFL production schedule the Ferro crew is preparing for a more relaxed and undefined working environment for their next project.  Although more undefined, the standards for the end product remain as high, if not higher for this client.  So you may be wondering…”What is this next project?”

Ferro Productions will be going on the road to bring you, our audience, behind the scenes coverage of the most monumental rock/funk tour in decades, the Van-Halen 2012 nationwide tour featuring Kool & the Gang!  The crew will be on location from hotel to venue, from load out to tour bus, and from the bus to the next city’s show.  All of the capture from this tour will be used in a special rockumentary for Robert “Kool” Bell, and will also be incorporated into a very kool new show…

Ferro in discussion with Kool's Artist Development Team

Ferro Executive Producer Joe Scacciaferro began co-producing a reality show with Mr. Bell and his Artist Development Team a few months ago.   The show goes into full production later this year with a tenative air date of Fall 2012.   Joe’s outstanding involvement in that project is what ultimately lead to Ferro’s invitation to come on tour and produce this rockumentary for Mr. Bell.

With the tour already underway, Ferro is excited to be jumping on board at the world renowned Madison Square Garden on February 28th and then traveling the Northeast for roughly a month.  Some of the other key show dates will be at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, the TD Garden in Boston, and at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City.  The crew will be traveling lightly, but efficiently with 2 JVC ProHD cameras, 2 full audio ENG packages, and Final Cut Pro for capture and rough cuts on location.

*Stay tuned for more about the upcoming tour!*
