“Gubi was instrumental in the production of 'Friends'. From the script's first draft to the edit's final export, he was there each step of the way ensuring that everyone remained organized, maintained deadlines and made sure everyone's needs were met without question. The script called for multiple locations in various environments, over 10 actors, action scenes, dance sequences, and moving car scenes. With a natural ability to recognize talent he assembled an incredible cast and crew while working diligently to create a shooting schedule that catered to everyone. He oversaw equipment rentals and purchases, wardrobe, location costs, talent and crew payments, even cooked daily, homemade craft services - all while keeping us within budget. 

The honest truth is that none of this would have been possible without Gubi. ”
