Connick, Jr., Ashley Judd, Kris Kristofferson and Morgan Freeman.
The book and film are inspired by the true story of Winter, a bottlenose dolphin that was
rescued in December 2005 off the Florida coast and taken in by the Clearwater Marine
Aquarium. Winter lost her tail after becoming entangled with a rope attached to a crab trap
and was fitted with a prosthetic one.
I was hired as a freelance artist to design promotional material, signage, and wall displays for

ANTHONY SIMS | RASMUSSEN COLLEGEProgram Coordinator / Full-time Faculty Professor | New Port Richey, FL
I have known Frank personally for about 15 years and we have also worked together at two companies in the past. His honesty and work ethics make him someone that I can trust to get the job done right and in a timely fashion. I have hired him on a few occasions as a video editor since he has been self-employed with Celi Creative. He has a very good working knowledge of the techniques and software applications related to his industry. He has a creative approach to getting the projects done. He was always able to get my projects completed within the time frame that I needed even if it was on short notice and I have seen him exhibit this same dedication and loyalty to other client projects that he has shared with me. I would highly recommend Frank for any graphic design, video creation, video editing or motion graphics project. He does great work at a fair price and you would not be disappointed.
Mr. Celi is a student in my class here at the community college. He has proven to be an outstanding student and an individual of character and pleasant demeanor. In his course of study, he has been required to understand and use complex drawings and specifications. His work is always of the highest caliber. He quickly grasps concepts and always has displayed a full and comprehensive understanding of the tasks to be accomplished. Mr. Celi is a conscientious and consistent worker who can be relied upon. For the reasons that are stated above, I give to you on behalf of Mr. Celi my highest recommendation. I feel that he would be an asset to any company that sees fit to hire him. One of the pleasures of my position is to write letters of recommendation for my students that are fine individuals like Mr. Celi. If I can be of any further service, please feel free to contact me at any of the points of contact in the letterhead.
I have had the pleasure of working alongside Frank at Rasmussen College over the last few years, first as a fellow adjunct, then as a FT professor, and now as the program coordinator for the School of Design and Technology (the department we both work for). While I have experienced a lot of change during my tenure here, one of the things that has never changed was that Frank is a consummate professional who is helpful, dependable, knowledgeable, and skilled in his areas of expertise. I am proud to be a colleague, and I would recommend him wholeheartedly in any multimedia or teaching endeavor. Frank is a valuable professional and a great guy to work with.
