F&F Productions welcomes Ryan Hatch to the position of Senior Vice President. “We are pleased to welcome Ryan to the F&F team. His years of expertise in the field make him a perfect fit for our company.”

Before joining F&F Productions, Mr. Hatch served as Operations Manager with NMT in Seattle, but quickly moved to Orlando in 1998 to open up the first Southeastern office as the General Manager. He was then promoted to Vice President & General Manager of the Gulf Coast Region in April of 2001 by effectively combining both NMT Orlando and Houston/Dallas operations into one cohesive unit. Prior to his career at NMT, Hatch worked for 3rd Avenue Productions as an Account Executive in the marketing production and editing facilities. He also worked at Belo Productions as Director of Operations and at KIRO-TV in their news department. Mr. Hatch graduated with high honors from Washington State University in 1988.

Hatch is replacing Connie Vizaro who is leaving the company at the end of May 2008. Vizaro joined F&F Productions in 1985, moved into a senior position for its affiliated company, Diamond P Sports for 10 years and then returned to F&F Productions in 2004. “I have enjoyed my tenure at F&F, and I am delighted to have had the opportunity to work with some of the best producers, directors and engineering talent in the business”, says Vizaro.

George Orgera, President & CEO of F&F Productions, says, “Connie Vizaro has made tremendous contributions to the company over the years, having helped build F&F Productions into a premier mobile HD facilities provider.” Orgera adds, “Her dedication, work ethic and successful tenure at the company were unparalleled."
