“No detail was too small or too large for Dennis to manage with our team. Thanks for the innovative approach and creativity you shared for the event's success.”
Naomi Holland, Marketing Director, Robert Graham Designs

Dennis is a first-rate producer. His professionalism, responsiveness and support ensure projects are completed on time, within budget, and with the highest degree of quality. He is a pleasure to work with.”
Patricia Carr, Executive Producer, Voice-Over Talent

“Dennis is a creative and business strategist who gets things done! I brought Tha Heights (the Latino Boys Group out of Washington Heights, NY) to Dennis and almost immediately, he put them together with Bazooka Bubble Gum and their advertising agency and created a multimedia campaign to feature the guys in five TV commercials, a music video and exclusive web content. Dennis directed the five TV spots and co-directed the music video - which has more than 3.5 million views to date! Dennis just sees things differently than most - and when he says he will do something - he does it and the results are always fantastic!” 
Patricia Taylor, CEO, Offbeat Entertainment

“As Executive Producer/Creative Consultant, Dennis took us down a path to make our song/vocals bigger for greater impact, We re-arranged our lead, rhythm and slide guitar tracks - because of his advice - and helped us transform the song into a real feel good, stand up and cheer anthem - everyone who hears it...loves it...and we're excited to release it as a single and license it. Stay tuned to your local country station - we're coming your way! Thanks in advance for helping me out. Dennis Gelbaum.” 
Randy Hock, CEO, Hockster Music

“One of the most knowledgeable pitchmen I have ever worked with. A true old school salesman at it's best. He instills confidence in the client and follows through with a soft close. He always sees the bigger picture and conveys that to client prospects better than most.” 
Al Bowman, CEO, Los Angeles Music Awards

“Dennis was such a pleasure to work for and with. He is extremely passionate about his work and works very hard to accommodate his clients. He truly goes above and beyond and sets the standard by which anyone on his team should follow. He is very detailed-oriented and always thinks out of the box. His visions are big and he's got enough energy and creativity to pull it off. I would absolutely recommend Dennis for any project you want to come out great!” 
Fola Grier, Financial Manager/Controller, Beaucoup Chapeaux/Talent Solutions

“I find it quite an honor to even write a recommendation for Dennis. He is just so versatile and so very talented in almost every aspect of our business. He has done everything from agency producing, to running his own production company. He has been the point person for very large companies, doing a mixture of the ad creative as well as some very effective salesmanship. He has even gotten new innovative TV programming off the ground and happens to be an impeccable writer, with a few great books under his belt! Creatively, Dennis is always looking for improvement and has time and time again created a final outcome far superior to it's original concept, coming up with the very best creative strategies imaginable! He is driven, and very thorough, but also a lot of fun to work with! An absolute pleasure! Dennis is truly one of the most talented, professional people I know in the biz, with an enormous range of abilities and experience. He is certainly the go-to guy who will get any job done to perfection!" 
John Monte, Creative Editor, Moondog Edit and Design

“I have worked with Dennis on several films and it is always a joy. He is a total professional. As a Director of Photography, I found it very refreshing to work with Dennis because he REALLY understands how to take what we shot and create a very good product.... one I can proudly show others.” 
Chuck Hatcher, Owner, Chucdp

“I have known Dennis for 27 years - as an ad agency producer, creative director, business strategist and multi-media content developer and partner. He has a great understanding and appreciation of what works and why. His creative instincts are impeccable! His work is always original and he challenges himself - and his clients - to always do something differently. It's fun to work with Dennis - watching him come up with ideas, open doors, break down barriers, walk on water...you get the idea. Dennis always finds a way to get it done - and done right!” 
Eric Baron, Writer, Director, Editor, New Door Productions, LLC

Gelby was a major force in production at BBDO. He had, still has, brains, balls and a great creative sense. He was a go-to guy in the Dusenberry Era on Pepsi, and his dance card was usually full when you tried to get him on your job. Smart and no shrinking violet.   
H. Robert Greenbaum, Senior VP, Creative Director/Writer at Gale Martin Advertising

“It's a pleasure to brainstorm with Dennis, who understands the power of copy. He's a creative powerhouse. Just test him out. For example, tell him about a project you're working on and he'll return with multiple (and brilliant) solutions. And being a self-described copy-butcher, I admire his ability to use words so clearly and powerfully.”                 
Linda Gottfried, Chief Creative Officer, Color, Light & Shadow

“Dennis and I have worked together on a number of business projects as partners. I found him to be very professional, knowledgeable and reliable. His work ethic is outstanding and his creativity impressive. I give my strongest recommendation to Dennis as a worthwhile partner and businessman.” 
Rick Barry, Owner, Wingnut (Member of the NBA Hall Of Fame)

“Dennis is a big idea machine and a wealth of knowledge! Just being in his presence breeds positivity, creativity, optimism, and confidence that anything is within reach. He is one of the most multi-talented executives I have ever had the pleasure of working with. His ideas are cutting edge, and his business acumen to execute these ideas is unparalleled. He is intelligent, confident, dedicated, and FUN!” 
Ramin Mirshah, Business & Creative Strategist, Talent Solutions
