Annelien Orbie

REVIEWS 

Adam Koppel – Freelance Creative Director
The last thing you want on a production is stress. The less stress, the more you can focus on making great work. I have been all over the world with Annelien. We have shot some wonderful things and made some great work. And at no point did I ever feel worried or stressed. Things were handled. The impossible was made possible. And it was always done with the greatest smile and attitude you could ever ask for.

Kerry Taylor – Executive Producer at Carousel Productions
Annelien Orbie is hands-down the hardest working, most hands-on, buttoned-up and organised agency producer I have ever worked with in my 10+ years experience. I have yet to witness another producer with such a keen sensibility to the realities of film production no matter how challenging the budget and expectations are. She works fast, hard and diligently, never missing a beat, all-the-while making it look effortless on every production. Always a pleasure working with Annelien!

Chris Colliton – Creative Director at 72andSunny NY
No matter the production, you know you'll be in great hands with Annelien. I've had the pleasure of working with her on multiple projects in multiple countries, and they've been some of the best productions of my career. She's incredibly detail oriented and thorough, yet has a great eye for creative and craft. And even when the world threw a global pandemic at us, she made a remote production as smooth and manageable as possible. Perhaps most importantly, Annelien is guaranteed to know all the best restaurants in any city... a critical trait of a fantastic producer.

Nickie Stevens – Business Affairs Director at The Pool LDN
In my opinion, Annelien is the best kind of producer to work alongside. She’s creative, dedicated and super-well organised – but best of all from my professional point of view, she’s very open and very collaborative. Creatives love her as much as clients do. Together, we have worked on international campaigns for Johnny Walker, Unilever/Axe and William Hill - all challenging clients and briefs with more than the usual quota of demanding requirements. And last but not least, she’s fun to be with!

Persis Koch – Executive Producer at BBDO Studios
I've had the pleasure of working with Annelien on a number of projects at BBDO. Not only is she a smart, extremely savvy, and a buttoned up producer but she's also just an awesome person in general who's fun to work with. When speaking to other producers and creatives at BBDO about the projects I am working on with Annelien, I can tell there is a lot of respect and love for her at the company across the board. She's the best!

Ewa Sypulska – Post Producer at Hecho
Annelien was born to do this job! She is one of the most professional and organised producers I’ve worked with. She goes so smoothly through the most challenging projects. She is not scared to make difficult decisions and she never fails. All of this without drama and negative vibes. That makes working with her really easy and super nice.

Eric Berg – Executive Producer at BBDO NY
Annelien is a pleasure to be around and is an excellent team member. A producer can have all the talent in the world, but if they’re abrasive or get easily flustered, that talent can’t have the impact it should. Annelien always maintains a calm demeanor even when other team members get stressed, and she has an upbeat, easy-going style that makes other team members comfortable. Multiple times, colleagues who had worked with her in the past have requested to be partnered with her on a new project. She’s also a great contributor to an agency’s culture and enjoys spending time with her coworkers.

Tony Hoang – Senior Brand Manager at 72andSunny AMS
Annelien is undoubtedly a team player and client whisperer. It is always a refresher to hear from the client that the production process ran smoothly and I owe that to her leadership and coordination.

Matt Firth – Creative Director at 72andSunny AMS
Annelien constantly looks ahead to spot potential bottle necks and problems before they occur and is able to recommend effective solutions when needed. Things are often fixed before you even know they’ve gone wrong. She is calm under pressure and always goes the extra mile to ensure everyone that she works with is happy and able to be at their best.

Jim Cancelliere – VP Associate Creative Director at BBDO NY
I have had the pleasure of working with Annelien on a variety of production assignments. She is super collaborative, organized and she always brings a fresh approach and creative solve to every project. From the complexity of maximizing budgets to the minute details of prop selection Annelien is on top of every detail.

Maria Dao – Brand Manager at Bombay Sapphire
Annelien is one of those rare producers who has the ability to see the big picture while also having a great eye and attention to detail. Her experience is vast and she is able to transition from one project to another seamlessly – in our experience working with her she oversaw shoots that involved capturing event content, large activations, and food/cocktail shoots. She is a well-rounded producer who is kind and even-keeled.
