Bio
Rikke Schubart
Ronnie Fridthjof is a talented, passionate, honest, and generous speaker. I had invited him to my television manuscript writing class at the university. Afterwards they wrote to me that this was the best teaching they had ever had in their life. My students pitched their projects to Ronnie, and he gave them feedback so they could see what the response to their projects would be in the professional media business, where they are soon going. His feedback on their projects was a unique help for their future work in the Danish media production. It was precise and constructive, and he took time to make clear what could improve their projects. This was precisely what they needed for their manuscript writing. Ronnie also has a natural and relaxed presence which is key to teaching and making contact to students.

Being a good creative leader is more than just running a profitable business. Equally important is that you can motivate and guide your employees so they become the best version of themselves. Ronnie is the modern leader that delivers on both skills. Ronnie has been a great mentor and leader to me, and has always generously shared his know-how. He has motivated me with his enthusiastic ideas and creative and clever foresights about the film industry, its markets and trends. As a leader he brings out the very best in his employees, making sure that you are given responsibility but never leaving you in the dark. Ronnie is one of the top most skilled producers in Scandinavia and has an enormous knowledge when it comes to producing top-of-the-line films and TV-series. It has been a huge privilege for me to have Ronnie as a mentor and leader, and I will always be immensely grateful for his mentorship and for everything he has taught me – it is thanks to Ronnie that I have become the producer I am today, and for that I am very thankful. I would never hesitate to give Ronnie the highest praise and recommendation.
