“Ambrosia” is a short film directed by Leif Jeffers.

About

Someone said that I needed to add a Profile Pic, so here it is: my profile.

Since I was a young man, I have been a movie fanatic, spending most of my time at the local video rental store and the megaplex. It has always been a dream of mine to work in film and direct. Telling meaningful stories is a passion I live and breathe, and there are days I still can’t believe that I get to do this for a living.

I started my career working on several big-budget and indie features alike, specializing in editing and animating animatics, previs and postvis. The skills I’ve acquired throughout my career have been a huge help while directing. Being able to execute a shot idea, visualize VFX and cut a sequence on my own have streamlined production, maximizing creative while staying in budget, all while maintaining the original vision.

I currently live in LA with my beautiful wife and wonderful daughters.
