"Guille at Brite Productions was an unexpected surprise. Having worked with many production teams around the world, I am accustomed to having to solve problems that often arise with working in a foreign country. This is the first time that a production has run so smoothly and a local producer has gone way beyond the expected protocol, catering to and anticipating needs. I couldn't have had a better team!" Lisa Maria Cabrera, Producer, Tenth & Hudson, Inc.

"We would like to formally thank you Brite Productions Latin America for the excellent work, dedication and excellent layout shown in this project. Really, it has been a great experience and we hope to repeat it in the near future. Without the support and professionalism of each of you, the result would not have been the same." Rony Siefer, Productor, Stillking / Chilenia.
