Gérard Angé’s Summary

Gérard was the founder of G.A.P. International Inc. a North American based satellite broadcasting and television production company. After creating G.A.P., Gérard expanded that business into a global satellite television network covering North and South America, Europe and Asia. Along with those networks, Gérard also provided video content and programming, producing "live television productions" on location throughout Europe and North and South America and Asia. He has provided production and broadcast services for all the US broadcast networks and some in Europe including his own global satellite network "Gapsat".

Gérard has created, produced and managed large multi-facetted productions and events from the ground up, directly working with very high profile clients and talent from Presidents and heads of state to celebrities and CEO's. He has produced large multi-camera video productions on the east, west coasts and outside the US.

He has also produced large single productions with video production crews simultaneously on 3 separate continents via satellite. Gérard has worked and managed single television productions where production budgets were over $100K.

Gérard is experience proven and very cool under fire... Live television has given him the talents and ability to be quick on his feet to adjust to any problem and find quick solutions to keep everything on schedule.

Gérard says; "There is always a solution to every problem. I do like the challenges and know the importance of having the talent to pull a rabbit out of the hat when needed."
