— BRETT NOVAK, FREEFORM FOUNDRY
“Our client required a mass reach program involving multiple outlets and high volume assets delivery. Dan and Zora’s professionalism throughout the process was exemplary and the results – outstanding imagery, video and client satisfaction. The schedule was tight and the days long. But they did not waver in their commitment to deliver. We will most certainly be working with them again and cannot recommend their work enough. If you want quality with a smile – look no further”

— KYLEE KAY, LINKD TOURISM
“My company has worked with Dan & Zora Avila over several years in their capacities as photographers, videographers, writers and producers. Our experience of collaborating with them on projects for our major US clients has been overwhelmingly positive in every way. Their professionalism, creative talent and unerring ability to exceed the business objectives set for a project are matched only by the ease and joy of working with them. Their creative product output has always been of superb quality, no matter what the brief and the challenges encountered. I wish all our experiences with creative partners were as successful and rewarding and look forward to our next project together.”

— CAROLINE DAVIDSON, DAVIDSON COMMUNICATIONS
“For our first time working together the partnership through all phases was successful and easy (which is always a good sign for a new partnership). The team is very eager to go above and beyond and momentum was maintained well throughout a somewhat tricky project thanks to the weather being against us at times. During the shoot, the crew were professional and respectful of operators and talent. In particular, we appreciated that the crew made sure their impact on the submarine crew was minimal and did not interrupt operations. Overall, we’re very happy with the outcome, especially the communication levels throughout such as the short calls to keep us in the loop post-filming and during the edit (it seems obvious but rarely happens). Thanks for being a part of the beast that was scUber!”
