ENDORSEMENTS

"I was awarded a big budget project for a still shoot in Rochester for Medco through their headquarters in NJ. I had never been to Rochester and didn’t have any contacts for crew or model agencies. This was going to be a complex shoot over 2 days with up to 20 models. I was in a bit of a panic, I had just a few days to come up with an estimate and a plan. I met Robin through a local Rochester photographer and we spoke on the phone for about 30 minutes. Robin was amazing and helped me with the estimate and was able to not only put an entire crew together in one day, but cast all of the 20 talent as well! The shoot went off super smoothly and well under budget. The client thought I must have worked with the crew for years, and was amazed to find out that is was our first time working together. Her crew worked like a well oiled team and Robin was the quarterback!" (Part 1 of 2)

"As a result of that first shoot, we were invited back to Rochester for another 4-5 times for more filming. Even during the height of Covid, Robin handled everything, complying with the State requirements and distancing protocols, keeping everyone safe! Can’t wait to go back to Rochester and work with Robin and her crew again soon!" (Part 2 of 2)

"Robin is often my first call for many of my projects. Whether I'm looking for a production manager, a line producer, or location scout, Robin has consistently been an integral part of our production team. She's reliable, resourceful, and resilient. She’s just a wonderful person to have on-set."

"Honestly, when you have a “sizable shoot” you will need help. And when you are looking for solid, professional, and thorough partners, you NEED to hire October Two! Robin has always been a “lifesaver” and always arrives ahead of time and well-prepared, to say the least. The only thing I want to focus on is what I do to make the shoot a success. So, when it comes to ”everything else” i.e. Scouting, Casting, Propping, and Producing, Robin is and will always be our go-to!"

"Robin is always my first call when I film anything in Rochester. She knows the local landscape better than
anyone and most importantly, she knows the crew and the crew knows her… and they trust her. I’m always
looking for an opportunity to bring a project to Rochester and work with Robin. "
