Our San Diego news video production team jumped into action just hours after the Colorado movie massacre, immediately transmitting footage and interviews from the neighborhood where accused shooter James Holmes grew up. Our San Diego field producer and San Diego video crews were among the first national media reps on the scene, and were soon joined by dozens of other journalists from all over the world. Our team quickly obtained high school photos and background information on Holmes, interviewed neighbors and former acquaintances and shipped the material via satellite — all within an hour after arriving. Solana Productions, Inc., stayed out in front of the developing story for several more days, securing more interviews and footage at the Holmes family church in Rancho Penasquitos and in other areas of San Diego. The material aired on “Entertainment Tonight” on July 20 and on the “ET” weekend show, July 21-22.
