Biography

Ted Rouse made his first film at the age of 13 using his father's 8mm movie camera. He affectionately refers to that early work as "the great World War II epic of all of three minutes." A self-professed "movie nerd," Ted conceived the idea of Lights, Camera, Location during a family vacation to Europe. Since it was his turn to plan the trip, the itinerary specifically included places which were used as locations in some of his favorite movies. As he sat on the patio of the historic Grandhotel Geissbach in Brienz, Switzerland, which was used in The Band of Brothers, he thought, "If I enjoy visiting these beautiful and exciting film locations, maybe others will too." Upon returning to the United States, Ted formed Rouse Program Entertainment, LLC and Lights, Camera, Location! was born. For Ted, the show is a dream come true and provides the perfect opportunity to meet the "cinematic hero's" of Hollywood's golden age. With more than 30 years of experience in television broadcast production, Ted's credits include thousands of hours of programming, thousands of commercials, and hundreds of hours of live content. His work has been seen nationally on The CBS Evening News, ABC's Good Morning America, Fox's Funniest People, The Montel Williams Show and even The David Copperfield Magic Special. Ted is also an unabashed "academic nerd" and holds a Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration and a Master's in Public Administration.
