-IMDB- Mini Biography By: Entertainment Resource Management
“Stephen Campanella is one of the most talented and experienced film professionals working in Ohio. I have had the pleasure of working with Stephen on several feature films and he is always my first call whenever I head back to Ohio.”
“I had a wonderful experience working with Stephen on The Bronze. He was an ideal on-the-ground producer for our production, setting up crew, vendors and local relationships in advance of our arrival, his professionalism and know-how continued to be impressive throughout the shoot.”
Stephen did a great job for us at NBA Entertainment when we had a huge production to shoot with almost no lead time to get it done. His crew was great and the project went extremely well. He was calm through all the changes we threw at him.
"Stephen Campanella has the experience to get a show produced on time and on budget, something a lot of people may claim but very few actually do."
"Ohio is organically a wonderful place to shoot, but when you add Stephen and his highly dependable and well-connected team at BELLTOWER, it becomes an absolutely first-class experience." - THE BRONZE

"We were making a low-budget indie in rural Ohio and we needed someone that not only knew the area in terms of locations and crew but also fully understood the realities of how to stretch every single resource to ensure that nothing was wasted; that it all ended up on the screen. Stephen R. Campanella was the perfect person for the job. Not only did he fit the bill with all of the above, he was also incredibly hard-working and exceptionally good with people. Above all, Stephen is a man of integrity in a business where that can be a rather rare quality."
" I recommend him most highly."
