Music Video Filmed In Cuyahoga National Park For Upcoming Animated Cartoon Starring Rob Schneider (As Elf Figgy Puddin’),
John de Lancie (As Santa Claus) And Many Others (The original song “Snow” features the up and coming Ramski Duo)

Nashville, TN (March 29, 2010) – Just a few days ago the scene was set in Ohio’s Cuyahoga National Park for the filming of a brand new music video, featuring the Ramski Duo, performing the original song, “Snow.” The video was filmed for release in conjunction with a major children’s animated Christmas cartoon starring Rob Schneider as Elf Figgy Puddin,’ John de Lancie as Santa Claus, and Catherine Hicks as Snowdorable, among many other great performers.

The cartoon is entitled Elf Sparkle And The Special Red Dress. It is the second in a series of eight Christmas cartoons that are made to bring smiles to faces young and old. Each cartoon is geared to teach a special lesson about giving, hoping, believing, and many other important character attributes. The music video and CD soundtrack will be available in conjunction with the cartoon release.

Buzzoose Productions, along with children’s book and film writer, Beth Roose, are truly bringing heart and art together in these film endeavors. Roose was raised in Ohio and the Cuyahoga National Park holds a special place in her heart. She commented on the filming of the new music video, “Snow,” and what that meant to her. "It was so amazing to be back home and share the beauty of the park with the film crew and the music artists. Home is truly where the heart is…and my heart was dancing at each location, which included Brandywine Falls, Everett Covered Bridge and the Ledges. I can't wait to share the hidden treasures of the Cuyahoga Valley National Park as well as The Ramski's with America.
