Client testimonials about their shooting experience with Brite Productions Latin America:

"I had an incredible shoot with Brite Productions Argentina. From the moment I landed through to the moment I left, I felt I had experienced an amazing group of production professionals. I am referring to all personnel that make up the Brite Production company, there are absolutely no weak links in the chain. It would be hard to find better." John Wagner, Creative Director, JWT New York.

"Brite Productions Argentina is top notch. They helped us make one of our most successful spots of the year. We had never been to Argentina before, but we felt right at home and were treated like kings. Since returning to NY, I have spent most of my time trying to find an excuse to do another shoot with them!" Chris Stevenson, Publicis Modern, New York.

Both Facundo and Ezequiel are veterans of the Argentine publicity filming industry, while Christian focuses on photo productions, especially with European and North American clients.
