Andrea Stockert and I are pleased to share the fund-a-need video we produced for Carousel Ranch, an equestrian therapy charity for special needs kids in Santa Clarita. While riding on the back of a horse, kids with autism, cerebral palsy and other conditions, are challenged in unique ways, giving them a sense of independence and freedom that defies their disability. Their Ready to Work Program helps prepare young adults with special needs for what's next after high school.
Carousel Ranch is sponsored by the Princess Cruises Foundation, and Eric Allen Productions is proud to have given our time and efforts for the second year to support the ranch's fundraising efforts. Last month's Heart of the West Event raised $325,000!

Congratulations to Carousel Ranch's Denise Tomey Redmond and Becky Graham for a landmark year of making a difference in the lives of kids. And many thanks to our pal, Julie Benson, for including us in another of her many passions!
MAJESTIC PRINCESS PREVIEW CRUISE
I want to thank and acknowledge the talented team of professionals who worked with us in Italy for the launch of Majestic Princess, the latest ship from Princess Cruises. This floating work of art was built in Monfalcone, Italy, to home port in Shanghai, China. On this preview cruise from the shipyard, the ship was filled with Chinese travel agents, media and key influencers, so many interviews were conducted in Mandarin.
We filmed a 7-day grid of activites from 9 am to midnight and also captured footage of ALL the venues of the new ship. Thousands of precious moments were funneled into digital post production on two computer edit stations in adjacent stateroom suites, working nearly round the clock to pull off our deadline.
The night before our departure in Rome, we handed off 158 USB drives created while onboard, including ship footage and the edited segment you see below, which travel agents and media took home with them to China, to talk about and promote Majestic Princess and her luxurious ammenities.
MILLE GRAZIE to this hard-working team -- Andrea Stockert (co-exec. producer/camera), Nancy Lynne Goodell (producer), Lawrence Elbert (camera), Marcus DiPaola (camera/producer in Mandarin), Brandon Riley Miller (camera), Puxan Chawla Bhowmick (gimbal-camera/food-shot magician), Ni Fan & Annie Giang (extremely talented editors, in Mandarin or any language!) and Haohao Yan (production support/Mandarin interviewer). And me? I had a chance to watch this team in action and got the opportunity to shoot the mother of all drone shots -- a new cruise ship on her maiden cruise, sitting BY ITSELF (!) in a picturesque European port. THRILLING! Thank you to Brian P O'Connor and his team at Princess for including us in another thrilling project and life adventure! My company motto is "Work hard and have fun while doing it!" The MAJESTIC PRINCESS PREVIEW CRUISE definitely fit the bill! #comebacknew #majesticprincess

Social media storytelling: Do you have life insurance in place that would protect your family if a catastrophe took the life of your family’s chief money-maker?
Our friends at Allstate Insurance asked Eric Allen Productions to produce a video that would tell that sort of story in a heart-warming and somewhat fast-paced light-hearted way. So, we spent two days with Jolynn Beck, a real-life Allstate customer in Albuquerque, New Mexico, whose husband, Justin, died in a hunting accident. Thanks to his forethought — with the help of Allstate Agent, Jalene Berger — Jolynn and her young daughter, Kayleigh, remained financially stable after the tragic death.
Does your insurance agent know your needs? “Who Knows Jolynn?” demonstrated that a good insurance agent keeps up to date on the milestones in the lives of his or her customers … a new home, a new car, boat or snowmobile, a new baby, or even a death in the family.
Produced for Cunard by Eric Allen Productions: Queen Elizabeth meets the historic Queen Mary -- the first modern Cunard ship to be berthed next to the classic ocean liner. February 5, 2015, Long Beach, California
