FAQs
What is Fetch Films Studio?
Fetch Films Studio is a creative documentary film studio founded by Josh Harding and Matt Klug, along with a collaborative network of filmmakers, editors, and storytellers. Based in Sonoma County and the San Francisco Bay Area, we specialize in short-form documentary films that capture real stories with authenticity, artistry, and heart.
What kind of films do you make?
We focus on documentary storytelling — from intimate character-driven shorts to cinematic brand stories. Our work often features real people, unscripted moments, and authentic places. While we currently specialize in short films, we’re open to longer-form projects that allow us to dig deeper into a story.
Where are you based?
Our home base is Sonoma County, California, with strong roots in the San Francisco Bay Area. We often film throughout Northern California but also work with collaborators nationwide.
Who do you work with?
We partner with a wide range of collaborators — from brands and nonprofits to artists, musicians, and community organizations. Whether you’re a company looking to share your mission through film or an individual with a compelling personal story, we love connecting with people who care deeply about their subject matter.
Do you only make documentary films?
Documentary storytelling is our specialty, but we also create branded content and docu-style films that blend authenticity with cinematic craft. We’re open to projects that stretch the format — from intimate profiles to visually driven narratives — as long as they start with a real story at their core.
How do I start a project with Fetch Films Studio?
It’s simple — reach out to us via our contact page or email us directly. We’ll schedule a quick conversation to learn about your vision, timeline, and goals, then share ideas for how we might bring it to life.
What is your production process like?
Our process is collaborative and flexible. We start with discovery — understanding the heart of your story. From there, we plan the shoot, capture footage with a small, nimble crew, and handle all post-production in-house. You’ll be involved in key creative decisions along the way.
Can you travel for filming?
Yes! While we love filming in our backyard here in Sonoma County and the Bay Area, we’re always ready to hit the road (or the skies) for the right story.
How much does it cost to make a film with Fetch Films Studio?
Every project is unique, so pricing depends on scope, crew size, travel, and post-production needs. We’ll provide a clear, tailored estimate after we discuss your project. We aim to be transparent throughout the process.
Do you work with other filmmakers?
Absolutely. Collaboration is core to who we are. If you’re a filmmaker, producer, or creative professional interested in working together, reach out — we’re always looking for like-minded people to join our projects.
