Jeremy Blackburn
Storytelling has been an integral part of Jeremy’s life since childhood. His earliest memories are of his mother reading to him at his bedside. But It wasn’t until his teenage years that Jeremy fell in love with cinema and began to produce short films with friends. He followed this fascination through college where he studied English Literature and Film at Western Kentucky University.
Jeremy strives to tell personal stories through a balance of form and content. He views filmmaking education as an endless pursuit and is always hungry to learn new methods of storytelling. Jeremy’s goal is to find the heart of every project and build a narrative to support it.
Aside from filmmaking and photography, you can often find Jeremy lost in an album or novel, trying out something new in the kitchen, paddling down the Elkhorn Creek, or feverishly supporting his beloved Kentucky Wildcats and New England Patriots.

What do you bring to the Creative Team?
“I think my strongest skill is in storytelling. I have the ability to analyze interview footage, b-roll, and sound and craft that into an emotionally resonant story. I also enjoy lighting scenes in a naturalistic way. Outside of video, my love is documentary and portrait photography.”
Personal
I live with my girlfriend, our cat Olive, and our Bernese Mountain Dog Midge. Photography is my passion. I am particularly interested in analog/film photography. I collect old cameras and shoot a ton of film. I am a voracious reader. I also enjoy live music, cooking, hiking, kayaking, fishing, and other outdoor activities.
