etropolis Editorial has a complete in-house staff of production personnel to handle a wide variety of shooting styles and techniques. Utilizing our own staff and our extensive list of freelance talent, our production manager, Suzanne Romaine, and our co-ordinators, Albert Leung and Jen Neumann, will assist you in finding the best crew for your project.

The following is a short description of our staff talents. Please call the office for complete bios.

Ray Santiago Ray actually focuses in producing these days even though he is constantly requested as a photographer. He always seems to find a shot that you hadn't thought of. Some clients still manage to get him to shoot, but it usually requires bribery.

Mike Huston Mike is the young one. Not that young really since he does have 10 years of broadcast experience. We refer to him as the kid because he works 14 hour days, never gets grumpy and never misses a shot (even in the rain).

And then there is grip and lighting Frank Patota heads our grip and lighting department. Unlike Mike, he does get a little testy sometimes (usually because he thinks the rest of us are having too much fun). He lights beautifully though and he has a vast amount of experience. The way to get him to join in the fun is to let him break out the big lights.

Freelancers Where would we be without our stable of trusty freelancers? Nowhere. That's why the freelance cameramen, audio techs and grips we use are the most talented, nicest and most entertaining people around. During the extremely busy perods, we rely on them to maintain the highest standards and be able to represent the company to its fullest extent.
