Jordan Miller
As a creative professional I have found myself filling many shoes; director, cinematographer, sound mixer, composer, and weekly podcast host. I have yet to try my hand at exotic animal training, but I feel my skill list has become competitively expansive. I have a Masters Degree in film production with my diplomas displayed as proof where anyone hangs important things, near the downstairs bathroom.
My first real film as a director was a feature-length drama, The Red Effect, which I was only able to make with the inexplicable talent and support of producers Pierre Walters (also the film's star) and everyone else at Blue Artists. The film went to some festivals in 2017 and won some awards and eventually found a home on Tubi TV. After The Red Effect I directed numerous music videos and a horror short, Three (2018), which won awards at various fests (including Best Overall Short at Nightmares Film Festival 2018) and is currently streaming for free on CryptTV. I gained more experience producing and editing short thriller 17 Locust St. (2017) and western short Lastwinter (2016), as well as composing music for feature-length horror film, Don't Open Your Eyes, by director Dmitry Yun, (with a debut at Cinequest and subsequent release through Screen Media Films).
From 2017 to 2019 I directed and produced three seasons of a web series, Frederick One Take, in partnership with Mystery Ton Studios and The Frederick News Post. The series gave me a chance to blend my passions of filmmaking and music while also giving a megaphone to some of the talent secretly dwelling in our corner of the world and beyond. Most recently I am completing my feature length horror/thriller film The Only Ones (2023) in which I worked as director, cinematographer, and editor. I am also finishing the western feature Was Once A Hero (2024) on which I am editor and was director of photographer.
I am also the co-host of Camp Nightmare, a podcast with over 180 episodes, dedicated to all things hilarious and horrific (listen HERE).
