An award-winning & critically acclaimed filmmaker and technology entrepreneur, Mr. Geadelmann entered the film sector in 2003 with the world premiere of his critically acclaimed debut feature documentary film, “THE DANCE – THE BILLY ROTH STORY,” which he wrote, produced, acted as music producer and self financed. Academy Award winner Nicolas Cage executive produced the film via his Saturn Films banner as part of a multi-project partnership.  The success of this feature documentary and its subsequent development as a scripted major motion picture for Universal Pictures, that Mr. Geadelmann was attached to produce with Mr. Cage, prompted the launch of 821 Entertainment Group, Inc.

From 2005 to 2010, Mr. Geadelmann and his partners built 821 into a Nashville-based diversified media company with offices in New York and Los Angeles. Divisions of the company included motion picture and television development and production, music (recorded music, publishing and supervisory services), digital media and communications. Highlights included Grammy and Oscar nominations, first-of-their-kind digital media endeavors (partnership with music legend Mark Knopfler, Universal Music, Reveille Productions & USA Network), partnerships with NBC/Universal, AMD, Nicolas Cage/Saturn Films and Universal Pictures; and clients such as Miramax, Warner Bros and Atlantic Records. 


Following a corporate restructuring in 2010 that created Crowfly Studios, Mr. Geadelmann helmed the award winning and critically acclaimed mentor-themed basketball documentary “DAVE,” (that is being developed into a scripted feature film), developed Bron Studios/Sony Classic’s Hank Williams biopic “I SAW THE LIGHT” (Associate Producer), starring Golden Globe Winner, Tom Hiddleston, and he continues to shepherd the adaptation of John Grisham’s best seller, “THE TESTAMENT” as a producer; in partnership with Academy Award winner, Mark Johnson, Producer Hunt Lowry and Yale Badik/Torridon Films.

Additionally, multi-part documentaries that Mr. Geadelmann is currently in production and post-production include the basketball project, “PREP,” that follows two seasons of one of the top post-graduate/prep basketball teams in the U.S., and an untitled investigative series on the BAYLOR FOOTBALL SCANDAL/Coach Art Briles story; featuring exclusive full access to Coach Briles; including his 2019 coaching stints with GUELFI FIRENZE (professional Italian football team) and the Mt. Vernon, Texas, Tigers.

A former international management consultant (Navigant Consulting) and senior healthcare executive (Duke University), Mr. Geadelmann previously co-founded a venture capital backed technology company (CareSteps) that pioneered web-based applications of advanced artificial intelligence (neural networks) for disease prediction modeling and evidence-based medicine profiling. The Company successfully merged with the world’s largest comprehensive care & disease management company (Healthways).

A Baylor University graduate who was awarded the Glenn O. Hilburn Most Outstanding Senior Man Award (1989) and a member of the Baylor Bears’ nationally ranked football teams (’85 & ’86), Eric and his wife Angie, a former Assistant Attorney General of North Carolina (Baylor & Wake Forest Law School), relocated back to Texas in 2012 from their farm in Nashville with their three young children; mostly to get back to their roots. They missed the Tex-Mex, BBQ and Austin’s live music. Margaritas are just better in Austin too.
