“When working on this challenging series for National Geographic Channel shot in 10 capitals around the world, it was crucial to find the best help we could in each location. San Telmo Productions managed to find and secure some of the most difficult contributors in Buenos Aires who really helped our show stand out. Ginger and Gabriel understood exactly what we were looking for, helping us in pre production and throughout our hectic filming week.” – Leticia Meruvia Line Producer/UPM Zig Zag Productions (UK) “Scam City”, National Geographic
“I wanted to thank you guys for making Buenos Aires a good shoot! You handled it very well, our gear had no issues in or out, drivers were excellent, logistics excellent so I have to thank you both for making it all happen! I appreciate it very much!!!!!! I will use you guys in the future for sure! I hope to come back to BA soon!” – John Kalning Line Producer/UPM, A Day in the Life Inc. (USA) “Gene Simmons Family Jewels”, A&E
“We had a last minute shoot come together in Argentina and decided to try to hire local. Ginger was extremely helpful with working through our crew, gear, budget and logistic needs – especially with our up-to-the-wire changes and additions. We were able to send our Field Producer down solo to work with their team. It was comforting to know that he had local help with ground transport and navigating any film permitting needs. Gabriel also helped our Field Producer locate and set up a shoot with one of our interviewees who had no phone or internet! We hope to be able to shoot more locations in the area, as we know we’ll have a local team we can count on.” – Amanda Metz, Production Manager AMS Pictures (USA) “You Live in What?”, HGTV
“As a small production company, we are used to wearing a lot of hats and solving problems on the fly. That works fine when you know the location and speak the language, but when we were hired to produce a short video in Buenos Aires, we knew we needed local help. And I can honestly say that the shoot would have been a disaster without San Telmo Productions. From figuring out transportation, to our specific gear needs, to security, to working with our contacts on location, their team made it possible. We have done similar small projects in cities around the globe, but none have been as smooth as working with San Telmo Productions in Buenos Aires.” – Adam Browne, Producer, Co-Owner, Plywood Pictures LLC
“San Telmo Productions could not have been a better choice for our first experience making a 20 minute video that was filmed in Buenos Aires. They were quick to respond to our pre-production requests and set up the shoot almost at a moment’s notice. At the shoot, Ginger Gentile was patient & methodical. The final product was provided quickly and the few edits we asked for were done within hours of our request. An extremely positive experience and we recommend San Telmo Productions highly.” – Maya and Tom Frost, Author of book: The New Global Student (USA)
“It was such a pleasure working with San Telmo Productions. Both Ginger and Gabriel were so thorough throughout the entire pre-production process. We had several conversations with them prior to the shoot. They arranged excellent gear rentals, an English speaking crew, chauffeured-driven transport, not to mention some of the best catered food any of us have ever eaten!! They asked lots of questions and didn’t miss a beat once it came time to the actual shoot. We have such a great product, thanks to their hard work and attention to every little detail. If/when we return to South America, they will be the first ones we call.” – Michelle McDonald, Supervising Producer, High Noon Entertainment (USA) “Bang For Your Buck”, HGTV
“Thanks to the incredible work of my producer Gabriel Balanovsky of San Telmo Productions the commercial was a walk on the beach for me. We managed to shoot 6 locations (2 exteriors) in 3 consecutive days, with FashionTV following our every step. Gabriel made sure everything went off without a hitch even though we were on a tight deadline.” – Synes Elischka (Austria), Director of publicity spot for Delaostia (Argentina)
“We found San Telmo Productions on the Internet and were a bit nervous, because we’d never filmed in Argentina. They were able to pull together a six day shoot, 12 actors, multiple locations and everything came out on budget. We also found that there were a number of delightful extras, like extra production assistants and private security, so our shoot went off without a hitch. Ginger Gentile and Gabriel Balanovsky are wonderful. The footage is spectacular.” – Jonathan Dariyanani, Independent Producer for K12, Inc. (USA)
“Ginger Gentile and Gabriel Balanovsky helped with all of my prepping needs for the documentary series I am working on.

“If you’re thinking about working with San Telmo Productions for a TV shoot in Buenos Aires, just do it. They are reliable, organized and proactive. We could always get in touch with them easily during pre-production. Logistics were great and Gabriel was able to get us a last minute location replacement in the blink of an eye. The sound guy they provided spoke perfect English and worked seamlessly with our DoP. We’ve shot all over the world and it’s always a pleasure to work with professionals like the ones at San Telmo Productions.” – Cassandra Corbet, Senior Production Coordinator, Leopard Films (USA) “House Hunters International” HGTV

I highly recommend San Telmo!” – Jim Ross, Director Creative Development, The Ultimate HD Productions (USA)
“When producing television shows in foreign countries there are many hurdles to overcome, such as unknown locations, unknown stories, different procedures & permits, foreign currency, and observing different cultures unknown within United States.
