Sofie Friis Borup has brought an eclectic sensibility and powerful visual style to features, commercials, episodic TV work, and music videos since joining the company in 2013. Even before she became part of Company 3, she had gained extensive professional experience having colored a wide variety of projects in her native Copenhagen, as well as in Stockholm and Berlin.

After initially studying to be and art director on productions, she realized that the world of post-production was an even more exciting pursuit. Growing up in an advertising family, she was familiar with all facets of production and post, and she realized this was natural career choice. She started working in the 2D CG tool Flame, which she excelled at, but it was color specifically that most made her creative juices flow and she soon moved on to the role of colorist at renowned regional companies such as Bacon, Duckling and Chimney Pot, where she worked on an amalgam of projects which gave her a unique sensibility about the art of image enhancement and a unique understanding of a wide variety of approaches to workflow.

A list of her major feature film credits includes Oscar-nominated Christopher Robin (Walt Disney Studios), multiple-award-winning indie The Assistant (Bleeker Street Media), the powerful psychological thriller The Nest (IFC Films), highly acclaimed wrestling drama The Iron Claw (A24), touching comedy A Man Called Otto (Columbia Pictures) and the creepy, award-winning drama Night Crawler, to name a few.

Borup’s commercial work includes major national and international spots including Budweiser’s “Whassup,” which received Cannes Lions Award in 2023; “The Talk”, for which Borup took home a 2018 AICE Award for Color Grading (Over 90 Seconds); P&G’s “My Black is Beautiful”; Huggies’ “Welcome to the World, Baby”; “Fly Human Fly” for HOKA designs; Team USA’s “One for All”; and Levis “The Greatest Story Ever Worn.” Her fine touch can also be seen in Volvo’s highly praised “Parents” and Nike’s “Dream Crazy”. Additionally, Borup has graded major music videos for top talents including Cardi B, Selena Gomez, Princess Nokia, Miley Cyrus, Robyn, Nick Jonas, The Jonas Brothers, and Janelle Monae.
