Thomas is so cool and very easy to work with. He is very knowledgeable with film & yet very patient with us. He makes everyone comfortable & motivates everyone to be their best. He has the experience and the poise to organize & lead the team to be successful. I am very thankful for the experience and really looking forward to working with Thomas again.

Thomas made me feel so comfortable. Ghostface was the first film I was ever in and I had always been curious what it was like being in a movie. When Thomas reached out to me and had asked me to be in his movie, I was so excited! One of the most nicest people I had ever met and I can see how passionate he is about his work. Thank you so much for the opportunity and would love to work with you all again in future projects.

Working with Thomas Sahagun on the movie Unknown Caller was a fun and an educating experience for me. Thomas is an upbeat, friendly and considerate person anyway and holds those same qualities in his work. He keeps actors and crew focused, motivated, fed and even entertained when on breaks. He knows what he wants in a scene and gets it. Afraid of heights? Here's a ladder. Can't swim? That's good. I will be more realistic. But making all things safe was number one for him. We're looking forward to the next one.

Working on Unknown Caller and other films was an exceptional experience, largely thanks to the vision and leadership of Thomas and Chris. Their meticulous attention to detail and commitment to the project created an inspiring environment for the entire cast and crew.

From the initial meetings to the final cut, Thomas fostered open communication, ensuring everyone felt valued and heard. His expertise in navigating challenges—whether budgetary constraints or logistical hurdles—demonstrated not only his professionalism but also his passion for storytelling.

The collaborative atmosphere encouraged creativity, leading to innovative ideas that enhanced the script and overall production quality. The producer's ability to manage diverse talents while maintaining a cohesive vision was truly impressive.

Overall, each experience was enriching, resulting in films that we are all proud of. I look forward to future collaborations with Thomas and the team.

My name is Fernando Dockery, I am a film student at Full Sail University, I first met Thomas Sahagun sometime back in May of 2024 with the intention of getting some real life experience in the film industry, Thomas gave me a shot and even though I knew little to nothing about filming, we first started collaborating on a short film by me providing aerial drone footage since I own a drone, Thomas needed some aerial footage for his short film, and today in the present, I am currently helping Thomas with professional lighting and camera equipment that was provided to me by the school, I feel fortunate to have the privilege of meeting and working with a local filmmaker from the Central Valley, the film industry is very hard to get into, so that's why I feel lucky, Thomas is easy to work with, he is willing to help me out on my school film projects and independent projects in the future. Thomas is has a good imagination, he can come up with a script for a feature film story in just a few days, I don't know if I will ever meet anyone like that in the future, he also knows how to utilize variety of shots to enhance his stories and how to shoot overlapping shots so that they are easier to work with in the postproduction process, I can say that as a film student I learned a lot from Thomas that I haven't learned at my Film School.

I am currently taking college classes in theatre atm, you inspired me to come out of my shell a lot. I enjoy all of your movies Thomas that you make. Keep doing your thing coach Thomas and I hope you can allow me to in a movie one day of your guises.  Thank you so much for inspiring me to go after my dream.

Thomas has a great personality and is really easy to work with. The whole team was extremely courteous and professional. Definitely recommend working with them.

I told you two weeks when you didn't get that job at the school for the digital position that you really wanted, that they would soon regret the day they didn't give you an opportunity did I not? I told you everything happens for a reason, I told you it happened because god has other plans for you. Here you are, two weeks later, earning contracts and shit with prime video. You are a real savage so don't let anyone ever tell you otherwise. Don't ever get down on yourself again. When one thing doesn't happen for you, it's because god has something else special waiting for you. That job didn't deserve your talent, anyone who has shut the door on you, is starting to regret it even if they say they aren't. Your only 26 and look at all your accomplishments in a year, shit I can't wait to see what you do in another year from now.

You are a special talent my boy. It's crazy to see how your always coming up with movie after movie. Outside of everything, your just one of the most humble human beings I know. Great things are coming your way, just watch. Congratulations on all your accomplishments this far cousin.

I might not have had a huge role, but I did enjoy my time with Thomas and his team. He truly cares about his cast and everyone involved.  I had never been involved in acting before so my first role in "Ghostface" I was extremely nervous and everyone made me feel so welcomed and comfortable. This  was truly a fun experience for me. Since playing my short role It opened other opportunities in acting and have appeared in other short projects. I hope to be able to work with Thomas and his amazing team again in the future.

My experience working with Elite Films Production has been wonderful. Immediately felt comfortable and welcomed when arriving on set, it felt like family. Everyone was very helpful, and explained where I should go when it was time for my scenes. Many things were available such as craft services. We follow a schedule to a "T" and every scene was set accordingly and met all the deadlines. SFX was amazing, and the director was really patient as well as all the cast members. Elite Films Production runs a tough ship for sure, but they get their stuff done and mean business. It was a pleasant experience  as an actor on this set. When we were not filming, we all had a great time building connections, friendships, laughing, and joking. I really enjoyed my time with this crew and team, and look forward to working with Elite Films Production more in the future.

Over the past year and a half, I've had the pleasure of working with Thomas who excels in producing, directing, and acting. He's incredibly talented and shows immense potential! I look forward to seeing one of his movies on the big screen one day!
