David Spark, Writer and Director of 'Dying As An Art'

"Helen was a joy to work with and a great character to have on set. She was very professional, delivered on the first take every time and was able to give complex and emotional performances at a moment's notice, which is just what we needed on a very tight schedule. All of our cast and crew enjoyed working with Helen and we look forward to hopefully working with her again in the future."
Matthew Buck - Producer, MCC Media Ltd

"Helen brought a brilliant level of commitment and self-discipline towards her own performances, and the shoot, which I appreciate. She excels in developing a character, I only regret we didn't have more time to rehearse like this! Patient and very down-to-earth, I can honestly say she would be an asset to any production. Thank you for all your work Helen."
Director Jordan Higginbotham

"The Hindsight film you worked on has been very well received. Your role was pivotal and the whole piece of work just wouldn't have stood up without the sincerity you brought to the part."
Director Cliff Edwards, Cliff Edwards Media
