Eric Rich

I am a filmmaker from Long Island, New York, driven by a profound passion for crafting unique and thought-provoking stories since the age of eight. My journey led me to study film at USC, where I earned a BFA from Emerson College. Throughout my career, I have actively engaged in writing, directing, and editing a diverse range of projects, spanning from short films and commercials to television shows. Recognizing the significance of comprehending all facets of filmmaking and production, I have immersed myself in various roles on film sets. This includes serving as a Production Assistant on TV shows in NYC and offering script coverage for esteemed literary agents at ICM Partners in Los Angeles. Fueled by my unwavering passion for the industry, I have cultivated an encyclopedic knowledge of films, tracing their evolution from the silent era of the 1920s to the modern streaming landscape of the 2020s. My commitment is to create content that not only mirrors my identity as an artist but also leaves a lasting impression. One of my recent achievements is the short film titled 'Stalled,' which premiered at the 2023 Slamdance Film Festival. The film has also been showcased at renowned events such as Fantasia, Cinequest, HollyShorts, and the Beverly Hills Film Festival.
