“When I met Jayne Gregory 7 years ago it was immediately clear that our journey together would be an incredible opportunity for me. At that moment of my career I had a lot of questions about choices I had to make. I wanted to work more abroad and continue to have great offers. Jayne is a talented agent who is always listening, always shakes her hands (her favourite expression) to propose me exciting projects. Clever, pragmatic, with a warm sense of humour she also manages my doubts well, always finding the words to help me make the best choice. She enjoys entertainment and she is always ready to see a good Musical. She is always available to exchange and share, her priority is always to offer me, with enthusiasm, scripts that make me happy. All her qualities make her an incredible partner and her strong and kind personality gives GEMS and all her team a singular touch with a warm and family spirit”

An essential service to any freelance crew-member"
 


Iain Andrew | Script Supervisor


"To give you an idea of GEMS; our industry employment range can come from any corner of the globe, with limitless possibilities. Any language, any media, any specific crew requirements. It’s a world of amazing requests. 'I need a French/Russian speaking scuba diving camera op, in the Arctic ASAP, who have you got?', I'd imagine that is a normal day at GEMS. I have been with GEMS for many years now, some years I find my own work; I am a freelancer after all! Sometimes GEMS throw me a curve ball I would never have heard of otherwise. They are my Lottery Card of Film work. You've got to be in it to win it. Other times they send my details for the tickover industry that is UK yearly TV and film. Basically, they put your name in the mix, sometimes in places you wouldn't normally be heard of. They open doors, the rest is up to you, remember, we can't be everyone’s cup of tea but if you are with GEMS at least your flavour is on the menu list"
