Director / Director of Photography

Eric is an award winning Director & Director of Photography who literally grew up in the film industry. His professional career started before he was old enough to drive; at the bottom, painting apple boxes and cleaning gear.  Eric quickly moved up the ranks, holding a variety of positions during his upward climb - production assistant, grip/electric, production coordinator, production manager... Eventually he became a powerful, creative force in post-production.  For the last 20 years Eric has been Director and Director of Photography at Shot Glass.  His experience in each position has been a benefit to his directing style and abilities.

​

Eric's talents have earned him an Emmy nomination, three Cine Golden Eagles, dozens of Tellys, and a couple of American Advertising Awards (ADDYs).  Given Shot Glass' growing client base and repeat business, it's obvious that Eric is uniquely talented, passionate about his work, and a pleasure to work with.

​

Some of the brands he has worked with include Levi Strauss & Co., Gillette/Venus, Samsung, Intel, Chevron, Union Bank, Edison International, Hitachi Data Systems, Bolt House Farms, Toyota, Muscle Milk, Smart & Final, Apria Healthcare, Syneos Health, TaxSlayer, and Henkel Corporation North America.  His government portfolio includes repeat business for the U.S. Army, U.S. Air Force, County of Los Angeles, National Transit Institute, L.A. Metro, and many more.

Outside of Shot Glass, Eric tries to catch as many sunsets as possible with his wife and kids. He enjoys skiing in Mammoth in the winter, and relaxing at Lake Havasu in the summer.
