Jeff Bednarz

Steeped in a strong oral tradition, Jeff realized at an early age that he wanted to be a storyteller. His ability to communicate and genuinely connect with people has been a driving force in his projects, from short films to collaborations with advertising agencies. Jeff has directed integrated campaigns for The Salvation Army, including a short film and photography series to demonstrate the organization's ongoing efforts in Haiti. His short documentary films include the SXSW-nominated "6," about football in small-town America, and "Take Me To The Water," which captured the spirit and inspirational portraits of the people of Pin Point, Georgia. Known for beautiful film wherever he shoots, Jeff has directed projects all over the world, most recently in Haiti, Chile, Argentina, Singapore, Germany, Chad, the Czech Republic, France and England.
