TESTIMONIALS

Coming from the U.S. and never having shot in Canada before, Bruno handled everything from production to getting my tax rebate.  Tending to usually have to micro manage productions, Bruno had everything done before I could even ask.  Probably my best experience ever shooting a film and can’t wait to bring my next slate to Toronto and collaborate with Bruno and his team for years to come
