I’ve worked with Markus over a variety of video production projects over many years, including medical educational, live streaming and multicamera shoots. Whether it was Barcelona, Madrid, Valencia or Lisbon, his services have always been well organised and helpful, with great results every time.
I have been working with Markus and Camera Crew Spain for many years, and he is our go-to professional whenever we are in Spain. Markus is always dependable, providing top-notch crews equipped with the latest cameras and gear. No matter the shooting requirements, he consistently delivers exceptional results. While many crews possess the experience, equipment, and expertise, there are only a few I truly enjoy spending a week with – and Markus is undoubtedly one of them. Highly recommended!
Markus Ruf served as my local producer on a 90 minute, prime-time special about Barcelona which I directed for Canal Plus in France. This was not your run-of-the-mill documentary; it involved the hiring of actors, extras, props, special effects, costumes, and numerous long shooting days with multiple locations. Through it all Markus and his team at Camera Crew Spain handled it all with calm professionalism and a ‘can-do’ spirit. He supplied me with top researchers, camera operators, and sound engineers who could function in any language I needed – in my case English and French. I cannot recommend Makus and Camera Crew Spain highly enough. I make programs all over the world and know how difficult it is to find top quality production services on location. Markus Ruf is someone you can definitely trust to get the job done – and somehow he always does it with enthusiasm and a smile.

I was lucky enough to work with Markus in a big production in Spain last month. His work ethic, professionalism and personality are truly incredible. In only one week, he was able to organize a crew with talented people and make everything happen in the smoothest way possible. I was told Markus had a special “aura” and this is absolutely true. It has been a privilege for me working with him and I really hope there will be other opportunities in the near future.
