A HERO TO HELP
FINISH YOUR STORY

THE POST-PRODUCTION CHIMERA
The chimera of post-production has many heads.
After planning, shooting and editing – typically for years – independent filmmakers then face the prospect of finishing their film.
Fixing and mixing audio, correcting and grading color, adding visual effects and graphics, and sending it all to some mysterious format called DCP.
It’s daunting, and costly. But I can help.
CHAD FREIDRICHS
Documentary Filmmaker/Film Finisher
I am a working documentary filmmaker who can help you finish your film.
I am best known professionally for three feature-length documentaries, on which I performed every single technical task except music production.
I take great pride in being fully independent and DIY. But the point is: I have been through this before.
“A huge success...A fantastic evocation of one of the most compelling soundworlds ever to orbit the contemporary underground. It makes you believe.”
-Wire Magazine
“Superb...
An uncommonly artful example
of cinematic journalism.”
-Variety
“A fantasia of mid-20th century
techo-utopian fervor”
-The Alantic’s CityLab
Combined, these films have played at prestigious film festivals throughout the world, including SXSW, Los Angeles Film Festival, Karlovy Vary Int'l Film Festival, Chicago Int'l Film Festival, and BAFICI.
They have received theatrical releases, been broadcast internationally, been acquired by the permanent collections of renowned museums, and won major film and historical awards.
All out of a tiny home office in Columbia, Missouri.
