"The film is looking very good and we all really enjoyed filming in Latvia. Your company did a very good job - thank you."
"The whole production team were very impressed with Latvian crew and how hard everyone worked to achieve so much in such a short space of time."
"Our experience of shooting with Baltic Pine Films was fantastic. The production was efficient, polite and well organized. The team had clearly studied the way that big production centers work and adopted best practices wherever possible. Crew, equipment and facilities were all excellent and although on this occasion we were working to a very specific brief, it seemed that the country also offers a diverse range of locations and production possibilities. It also represents very good value for money and allows for a flexibility that would be harder to find in many other European countries. I can thoroughly recommend shooting with Sergei and his team and look forward to returning to Latvia soon."
"Latvia was an obvious choice from the start: experienced crew, proven service company and very economical. We were looked after impeccably from start to finish and the production went incredibly smoothly. Highly rated!"
"First of all shooting in Riga/Latvia, has multiple options. It is possible to create different moods, everything from fairytale to contemporary styles, I would say that it is possible to create a certain visual universe like nowhere else in Europe. Shooting with Baltic Pine Films, is one of the very best service productions I have shot with worldwide. They know what they do, they bring in the best crews available, they test everything, but the most important thing....They listen! I would shoot with them any time and recommend them to anybody, as long as they are still available for my own shoots [smile]"
"I have just completed a short shoot in Riga with Baltic Pine Films and I must say that it was a most efficient and pleasant experience. Everything through pick-up at the airport to return home went smoothly. The shoot was well prepared and the atmosphere on set was relaxed but professional. We were well looked after both on set and at the hotel and nothing seemed too much trouble. I can thoroughly recommend working with Baltic Pine Films."
"We had a great shoot. It was a very nice experience to shoot with you and your crew. My client was very enthusiatsic about it. I am sure this is not the last time we have done this."
"Thank you so much, it was impeccable production! Please, make it extensible to all your brilliant crew."
"I just want to tell you in a few words that I'm really happy with the job you've done for us, the footage looks great, congratulations! You have a great team, thanks for everything, I hope to see you soon in a new project."
"I've been curious about shooting in Latvia for some time now, as it is so close to Scandinavia and yet so far away in terms of price level... We were all quite excited about the shoot because none of us had ever shot there before. The first impression of Riga is like arriving in Copenhagen or Stockholm: clean, well organized, nice buildings, beautiful old town. People are friendly, and we had no problems getting by speaking English.
Our shoot was perhaps not the most challenging, but either way: the shoot was one of the smoothest ever! Great crew, good locations. Nothing to complain about. Really!"
"I look forward to having something to work with you on again."
