The SVG Podcast: FOX Sports Lead Director Rich Russo Previews Super Bowl LVII

What makes the Super Bowl different from any other live production?

It’s Super Bowl Week and preparations are humming along with FOX Sports down in Arizona.

This Sunday will mark the fifth Super Bowl at the front bench for FOX Sports Lead Director Rich Russo. Prior to the Big Game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles, Russo chatted with SVG’s Co-Executive Director, Editorial Services, Ken Kerschbaumer.

What’s it like calling the shots for the biggest show on television? How does he prepare the broadcast? What was his job at the first Super Bowl he ever worked back in 1987? What’s on his bucket list of events to direct?
