Career edit
Buschel's first film, Bringing Rain, premiered at the 2003 Tribeca Film Festival.[3] His second film, Neal Cassady, was distributed by IFC. His third, The Missing Person, premiered at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival[4] and was distributed theatrically by Strand Releasing. It earned Buschel a 2009 Gotham Awards nomination for Breakthrough Director.[5] He has collaborated with cinematographer Ryan Samul on four movies: The Missing Person, Sparrows Dance, Glass Chin and The Phenom. Matt Prigge of Metro New York wrote that, "Noah Buschel might be one of indies' most interesting filmmakers, all the more so because he doesn't belong to any easily promotable group or even genre."[6]
Buschel was a contributing editor for Tricycle: The Buddhist Review and an essayist for Filmmaker Magazine. His topics have included gun violence in films.[7]
