TESTIMONIALS
"The best producers are part-hustler, part mafia enforcer and all-charm - which are the traits that Tessa commands with equal aplomb. Never one to lose her cool, even under the tightest deadline or most conservative budget, she managed to produce miracles while always keeping the various politics and struggles between the account groups, client and creatives on even keel. There is no other producer you'd want on your side if the camera smashes, the script is torn up and the actors have taken the limo to the rough side of town for some shoot-day R&R.... "
TREVOR SHOENFELD / CREATIVE DIRECTOR
"On a high stress-too many fingers in the pie-tough client-not enough time-high ambition-lots riding on the outcome-agency owners not getting it-suits not helping-type of job, Tessa helped me get through it all with an amazing product and never once lost her cool or sense of humor. I'd hire her again in a blink"
CHAD BORLASE / CREATIVE DIRECTOR
Tessa Waisglass is not only an amazing producer, but she is just an all-round beautiful human. One of my all-time faves. I consider myself to be pretty lucky having worked with Tess several times over the years. Once I know she is on-board for a project, I know I am working with one of the best in the business and in for some laughs along the way. Tess is so knowledgeable, smart, fun and can-do. All the attributes to being a great producer. I look forward to working with her again and I can’t recommend her enough to everyone in the industry. Tess is the best.
MARCUS SAGAR _ CREATIVE DIRECTOR, LEO BURNETT
"Tess is a true pro. She's organized, conscientious and is genuinely enthused about the creative/production process. I've hired Tessa to produce a number of jobs and wouldn't hesitate to do so in the future. From the earliest stages right through to job actualization, we know when we bring Tess in, the job gets done right....and always with her ever-present smile."
DOUG LOWE / PRODUCTION MANAGER
I've had the distinct pleasure of working with Tess at two different agencies on a wide range of clients from Hellman's, to Huggies, Dove Global, Hyundai and the Latin/Caribbean division for Scotiabank. In every case Tess consistently demonstrated an ability to manage complex projects, meet tight deadlines, and deliver outstanding results, all while maintaining grace under pressure. To call her a producer doesn't go far enough - she is the most valuable person in the meeting room and on set.
