TESTIMONIALS
“Naomi was an innovative, integral member of our editorial team, her photography artful and unique, she really understands how to photograph people, as well as manage casting, booking crew and locations, and pushed creative boundaries within the commercials realities of the organisation, from concepting editorial stories and photographing fashion, food and advertising, for our weekly and monthly magazines.” ABI FRASER - Creative Director, News Corp
“Ironically, this script is in some ways reminiscent of an older Jackson film, or something by Guillermo del Toro or Alex de la Iglesia. The script is exciting and in som moments I was reminded of both Caro/Jeunet and Miyazaki. JF” THE GAMING ROOM - Feature Film Screenplay - The Page Awards Sci-Fi Quarter Finalist
“I have worked with Naomi for several years on promo videos, TV commercials and “Soul Mates” as Director of Photography, with Naomi in the position of writer/director. Naomi is a professional and fun person to work with. When the “Soul Mates” producer became unavailable, Naomi stepped up and took the film through post production and marketing, demonstrating her passion and strong work ethic.” PAUL HOWARD - DOP
“Naomi Rossdeutscher has a great eye, is inventive, artistic and sensitive to the subject. Everyone is THRILLED - record company, publicist, management-especially me-with the photo, which was beautiful enough to get me on the front cover of a magazine!”
JANE RUTTER - Flute Queen, Concert Soloist, #1 Adventurous Classical Artist
