Testimonials

“I cannot recommend Deborah Gilels and her LA Media Consultants highly enough!  As a media consultant and PR person, her care, knowledge, creativity and efficiency on several of our projects, not only got us in the door at several production companies and agencies, but helped with getting our business plan and some initial financing sources on board.  Her grace and kindness is beyond compare, and her lioness, fearless approach and insights in all our interactions has helped me continue to develop meaningful projects and find homes for them.  A plus, she is a “Mensch” with taste, contacts and experience!” – Devorah Cutler-Rubinstein, President, Noble House Entertainment, Inc & CEO, The Script Broker

Deborah Gilels is a gem.”– Kay Phillips, Screenwriter

“At the time I met Deborah Gilels I was a first time filmmaker, had no connections in LA, and had never been to a film festival ever. We met at the La Femme Film Festival where the festival version of my film , then titled ‘Keiko The Untold Story ‘, was selected to screen. She took me under her wing, and due to her expertise and connections she has remained a very important part of the journey of this film ever since. Check out the ‘Blue Carpet Event’ at the film’s website keikotheuntoldstory for the first Official Screening of the film at the historic Grauman’s Eqyptian Theater in Hollywood for the 20th Anniversary Celebration. The stars from the movie Free Willy were present to walk and interview on the Blue Carpet for the dual screening of the 1993 Hit film Free Willy and our film Keiko The Untold Story of the Star of Free WillyAfter that event Deborah connected us to Ilyssa Goodman who is now the sales agent for distribution who just negoitiation a deal for us with Discovery Channel UK. …..and the amazing journey continues.”-Theresa Demarest, Filmmaker
