REVIEWS


KEVIN THOMAS 
DIRECTOR AND COMPANY OWNER AT THOMAS THOMAS FILMS, UK 
Over the past 20 years i have filmed in over thirty countries.
For each of those countries we have required a local service company, and from each of those companies we are provided a service producer.
That's a lot of producers, and as a result, it's hard to remember most of them.
But Gerda is one of the few unforgettable ones. Gerda is one of the brilliant ones.
The shoot itself couldn't have gone more smoothly, thanks largely to Gerda.
She got us a crew that were totally on their game and always one step ahead.
But a shoot only goes smoothly if the prep work is done properly, and again for this, Gerda made everything happen.
But for me, just as important as all of this, Gerda is also fun, and a joy to hang out with,
and thats pretty important when you spend hours in a car with that person travelling up and down the country looking at locations.
I honestly can't recommend Gerda strongly enough and i'd happily shoot something with her every week.

DIRECTOR, GERMANY
I had the pleasure to make two jobs with Gerda. It's about her passion for this job, it's about her patience and sympathy and creativity for this weird world of advertising. As a director i feel safe. She understands me, and she understands the clients, she understands every little position of a team, and gives us the same attention. Thats also a reason why I can‘t wait to go back to Vilnius, to work with her and with her team again.

It is my pleasure to write a few words about Gerda Serbentaite, an amazing Producer based in Lithuania.
I first met Gerda Serbentaite in March of 2013. I was working with a Director called Tracey Rowe who is known for doing very complicated, lush, beautiful TVC’s for her client DARBO. Tracey was looking for beautiful cast + locations as well as highly skilled crew. She suggested I contact Gerda and a wonderful relationship started from there. We did extensive, remote pre production and I can honestly say Gerda was beyond amazing in how she connected us with the right crew, Casting Director, Location Scouts and Costume Designers. She worked tirelessly on keeping us on budget and on time and always with a huge smile. She was incredibly at solving problems that came with a huge production that spanned from Sydney to Lithuania to Austria to New Zealand. She created amazing PPM booklets with perfect detail and information. I remember one year DARBO required fresh peaches + berries which in the middle of winter is very hard to find. She brought in her Art Director and Food Stylist who made the most beautiful, real looking fruit I have ever seen. Her attention to detail and her personal skills are extraordinary. She is multi skilled and helps to bring the entire project to a stunning place - always on time and on budget.
I have over 25 years experience travelling the world, producing TVC’s with many high end advertising agencies and can honestly say Gerda was the best Service Producer I ever worked with. I can only hope that I will make it back to Europe to work with Gerda again. She has a gift that is incredibly special and I cannot recommend her enough.
Please feel free to contact me at any stage to discuss Gerda Serbentaite. A most amazing woman and Producer.


TRACEY ROWE
DIRECTOR, AUSTRALIA
Gerda has been one of the most professional Producers I’ve worked with, in a worldwide context. Gerda grasps both budget and creative concepts, and has the ability to achieve what a Director needs and wants, but be in balance with all important costings of a job.
It is very apparent that she has the total respect of the crew and this enables her to achieve a high level of production value on jobs. A quality I found in Gerda, quite unique among Producers, is the ability to liase between myself, post production VFX, and rig builders and or art department/special model makers. Her intelligence and clear understanding of complex rig builds made me totally trust that under her guidance everything would be built according to the specifications.
I would highly recommend Gerda for any Production, not only for her dedication to being professional, but her gentle and beautiful nature makes the whole experience a delight. I cannot recommend her more highly.
