JEFF NEWMAN, director

"My passion is to bring characters to life... Life in it's most beautifully imperfect, conflicted, flawed, and true form."

 

Over the years, I have developed a broad berth of expertise in the directing field. I have worked in feature film, animation, commercial, and web, with independent and branded content.

 

To me, executing my vision is only half of the picture. I consider the job of the Director to be a "creative facilitator." Through every stage of production I work actively with each department head (craft and creative), as well as with the talent, to make sure that everyone has the opportunity to express their creativity as well. Producing good content absolutely requires pride and dedication from everyone involved.

 

Nowadays it is crucial to have a broad understanding of the entire production pipeline, and I have experience across the board as a writer, producer, actor, and editor as well. This knowledge allows me to make snap decisions on my feet with confidence.
