“I would like to introduce you to the work of
Harry and Max Frishberg, two young men
who have made films of every genre when
most people their age have barely seen them.
It speaks of their passion, commitment,
dedication, and ability to have fashioned, with
the most basic of film equipment, movies
that rival what you see in today’s theaters.”

“I’ve been composing music for Film and TV since the 1980’s
and it is my sincere pleasure to endorse Harry and Max Frishberg
as they launch their filmmaking careers. I’ve seen first-hand how quickly
and professionally these brothers can pull off an entire production.
During a recent Portland visit, I was amazed to see how
(then 19 yr. old) Harry’s directorial vision is animated by his passionate
knowledge of film score music. Harry quickly finds the right music for
the right scene and builds movies enhanced by his refined musical taste.
I just know that Harry and Max will continue to soar as
prolific, young, impassioned, versatile, filmmakers -
and as the newest team of brothers in the Industry.”

“I’ve worked as a film editor for over 30 years and Max Frishberg
has apprenticed with me for the past year on “The Path to 9/11”.
As we watched dailies together, I could tell that Max has
an editor’s eye and that he can feel when the scene is right.
Any person can throw a bunch of shots together on a timeline, but
what I see in Max is the heart and good instincts of an editor –
he makes his decisions according to what is best for telling the story.
I am truly amazed to see the high quality,
professional filmmaking of Max and Harry Frishberg.
Max’s work shows a good rhythm in knowing how long to hold on
certain shots with an understanding of comedy, action sequences,
and musical numbers. I have no doubts about Max’s readiness and
capabilities to work and succeed in this Industry.”

“In the five years that I’ve been teaching Post-Production,
I’ve never before met students like Max and Harry Frishberg.
These two refugees from Portland came to Los Angeles and
revealed themselves to not only be my brightest and most
interested students, but also extremely capable filmmakers
with a strong aesthetic sense of story and the technical skills
to make those stories much more entertaining.
Many people in our business speak of their passion, but in watching
the way that these young filmmakers have approached our craft and
executed their own vision, there is no question in my mind that they
have certainly put their talent where their mouths are and that
they are ready to move forward into bigger and better things.”
