DGA PRODUCTIONS

DGA PRODUCTIONS Established in 1981 by Dean Gaskill, DGA Productions is an award-winning, full service video production company based in Boston. How did DGA come to be?

We were handpicked by Dean Gaskill, who co-founded the company in 1981. He chose each of us to fill specific roles; the goal being that we would excel as individuals — and make up a powerful team together. We pride ourselves on producing consistent, top quality, do-whatever-it-takes work. Think of us as a well-oiled machine — nimble, but exceptional. A History of Excellence

Part of our commitment

to excellence is our history. Dean was an industry visionary and our beloved mentor. But we bought his company not just because we worked well together but we liked each other. If we were to cast our own family we’d choose each other. You’ll just as likely catch us celebrating Thanksgiving together as you would strategizing the shot list for a Patriots story on ESPN. That kind of solidarity translates into first-rate work, and a long list of loyal clients, including Dana Farber, Big Brick Productions, HBO, United Way and NFL Network. Award-Winning Quality

Our Director/DP has been nominated for an Academy Award and has 3 best director Emmy's; our Director of Photography has 6 Emmy's. Over the years, our team has brainstormed with chef Julia Child at her kitchen counter (we shot her PBS series for 7 years), documented an underwater pirate ship for National Geographic and spent 20 years with Chris Kimball at “America’s Test Kitchen” followed by "Milk Street Kitchen." We’ve interviewed patients in a pediatric cancer ward for the Jimmy Fund and directed “Justice,” Harvard University’s seminar series with Michael Sandel. From writing to editing, shooting to producing, we customize each project around a client’s concept and budget, tapping the best talent and state-of-the-art equipment on the market.

DGA was delighted to HONOR such extraordinary, devoted, proud Moms, in collaboration with Joe Berkeley, on the recent Shields Health spots - two thoughtful tributes to the MVPs of our lives.

“No one will ever love you like your mother, and there’s no one we love more.”

We tip our caps to the joyous, courageous and resilient mothers, past and present, that helped shape who we are today - Happy Mother’s Day!
