Chad Gundersen’s producing career began over 25 years ago while in college at the University of North Texas.  Before graduating, Chad co-founded Night & Day Films in 2000 and made numerous award-winning commercials, music videos and short films.   Going out on his own in 2006, Chad started Gundersen Entertainment and worked alongside studios like 20th Century Fox, Lionsgate and Sony to produce multiple films.  Some of his more notable projects were Like Dandelion Dust starring Academy Award Winner Mira Sorvino and Barry Pepper, The Trial starring Matthew Modine and Hoovey starring Patrick Warburton and Lauren Holly.  In 2015, along with producer Chris Juen, Chad started Out of Order Studios.  They are currently producing the breakout online television series, The Chosen, as well as producing two children’s animated series and developing numerous live action feature films, animated feature films and TV shows.  He and his wife Amanda live with their two children, Kai and Kenlee, in Texas.

He is looking forward to heading the filmmaker workshop and has requested "an open forum type scenario.  I love doing Q&A and I say its no holds barred on anything from budgets, to insurance to casting, to choosing projects to distribution, etc etc."

"I like the idea of the panel to listen to pitches... I love to help people work through their own personal questions about the business and I have found that naturally opens things up to talk about other things... director/producer relationships, getting rights to IP's, funding, distribution.."

"...and you can not only do pitches, but also just hear people out on their hopes, dreams, career choices, etc.  I am open to whatever."

​

Chad is loaded with expertise and very excited to share it with everyone at the workshop.
