His work has taken him around the globe and, with his camera, into challenging, rewarding, and breathtaking stories. An accurate and updated crew credit list is available on his website. Eric began his career as an actor with a BA in Theater Studies: Acting & Directing from Emerson College in 2014 before moving to Los Angeles to pursue a career in film and television. From 2016 - 2024, based out of Los Angeles, Eric directed five and produced 11 ultra-low budget independent feature films (less than $150K), learning the art of filmmaking through passionate, hard work in a variety of departments, styles, and crews. In his parallel timeline, his passion for all things camera grew his cinematography career as he lensed national commercials and photographed additional feature films for other directors and some of the world's biggest comedians in intimate documentary work and arena stage performance capture. In 2025, returning to the Boston area, Eric's approach to his career was met with a classic 21st-century artist's re-understanding of identity that we are, in fact, "humans first, crew members second," and life beyond set is crucial to both his development as an artist and as a person that hopes to live a fulfilling life well into his later years. Moving forward, he hopes his work reflects character-driven narratives that improve an audience's understanding of themselves. He is available for international cinematography work on documentary, commercial, or narrative projects.Show more
