National News
 The
key to our success when covering national news stories
is determination. We will stay as long as it takes
to get our clients' footage, that no one else has.
This often means long hours of waiting for that
perfect shot. You can depend on us to get the kind of footage that wins awards.
Here, we waited just under five hours for John Kerry, the 2004 Democratic Presidental Candiate, to FINALLY make his way to the stage and greet an enthusiastic Arizona Crowd for ABC's Primetime LIVE.
 When Hurrican Katrina hit New Orleans, Louisianna in the fall of 2005, America's Most Wanted and ABC News called upon Picture This Productions to cover the largest natural disaster in US history. We spent nearly one month on the Gulf Coast, covering the devastation not only in New Orleans, but Baton Rouge, Gulf Port, and other surrounding areas as well.

Local News
Local
news is about people doing something, not something
being done. We've done stories on people from all
walks of life. We got up close and personal with
a Mesa, Arizona teenager who although terrified
of heights, climbed a 200 foot electrical tower
to save his autistic brother. We followed Brook
DeWalt, a Phoenix Theater manager through his last
day on the job at a landmark theater that was closing
after decades of service to make way for a new parking
structure. These stories and others impact the communities
in which people live. Picture This Productions,
Inc. was on hand to share these moments with their
families, friends and neighbors in various markets
across the country from North Carolina, to Kansas,
to Arizona.

 Parents don't always know what their children do with their free time. As much as parents do their best to stay involved, it's easy for children to hide certain aspects of their lives.

Picture This Productions got the call to aid Geraldo Rivera in sharing the story of parents still mourning the loss of their child.

Cable News
Today,
cable TV is prevalent in almost every American household.
Viewers have the ability to choose topic specific
programming on hundreds of channels. Programmers
provide audiences with shows they want to watch,
on topics they want to see. |

Reality
based television offers a glimpse of life through
the eyes and ears of another. Picture This Productions
recently worked with Court TV to broadcast the trial
of the State of Arizona V. Caliri, in which a housewife
was accused of hiring a hit man to kill her husband.

Many cable viewers like to be kept up to date on
events around the world 24 hours a day. These news
outlets provide the viewer with interesting facts
and stories that traditional broadcast viewers might
not see. Picture This Productions was on hand with
CNBC as Penn Racquet Co. announced it was manufacturing
a 6% larger tennis ball. This helps those new to
the sport learn how to play a little easier while
allowing older players the ability to play a little
longer.
