Sound Stage/Studio
A consistent location to shoot TV shows is critical for delivery of live content. It allows us the opportunity to acquire invaluable proprietary content that will be applied to our field productions and fill our content library. We are leasing a 15,000+ square foot facility in Northern California for the production of live and live to tape shows. This facility currently serves as our base of operations, and is rentable.

Ridgeline Equipment and Crew Rentals
Ridgeline owns, maintains, and develops 2D and 3D field production equipment capable of allowing multiple field teams to be in production simultaneously. These field production packages utilize camera designs that allow crews to film in rugged conditions. Ridgeline manages its own in-house postproduction facility that hosts online and offline editing, a graphics department, a promo department and a finishing suite. Our studio and video, audio, lighting equipment, Jib and Genie lift are available for rent.  Ridgeline offers turn-key solutions for other producers of 2D and 3D content, as we can accommodate multiple production projects.

Ridgeline Group Classes & Private Lessons
Doug Stanley occasionally offers private classes and private tutoring in 2D and 3D in many different areas. Upcoming classes will be posted. Personal, one-on-one classes can be arranged according to Mr. Stanley's schedule. Mr. Stanley also considers speaking events depending on our production schedule. Please contact Nancy Libby at NLibby@ridgelineent.com for details.

Ridgeline 3D
Ridgeline’s Founder, Doug Stanley has extensive experience in the development and production of primetime television programming. He was also one of the first 3DTV executives in the world, delivering many 3D “firsts." His experience, and the solid team behind him, will provide a reliable resource in helping you shape your programming schedule.

The television industry is embarking on a transition to stereoscopic 3D. Ridgeline is here to provide the engaging, professional content that your sophisticated viewers expect. Ridgeline was formed specifically for the purpose of serving 3D broadcasters. We bring not only content, but overall programming strategies to the table. We are committed to this emerging business and a solid partner for seeing it succeed.

We see this as a critical time for broadcast 3D. How fast will viewers adopt 3D? It will depend on both the quality and quantity of the content available to them. We believe that it is important to have innovative programs where 3D is presented as a new story telling tool, not just a depth effect placed over 2D production practices. The result of Ridgeline’s approach is a better television experience that we believe will help define the future of broadcast 3D.

While it is our mission to provide a reliable source of compelling multi-genre 3D programming, it is our specific goal to create the very programming that will establish brand and “network look” for emerging 3D networks and to become a trusted production partner in the process.
