Riley Flanagan - Head Shot

Riley Flanagan, Founder

By ADs, For ADs is run by one person: me, Riley. I'm a working AD building simple apps and production tools for other ADs, PAs and crew members.

​

I'm not a giant company. I'm not trying to sell bloated software or inflated news to film crews. I'm making the kind of tools I wish I had on my own jobs. Tools that are designed to do just one thing and do it right.
