Bruce B. Gordon BIO Bruce B. Gordon is a director, screenwriter and producer. His company (Bruce Gordon Media) has multiple feature films in various stages of development. When he moved to Los Angeles, Bruce B. Gordon transplanted the songwriting and music production talents he learned in his hometown of Detroit, Michigan very easily. After playing keyboards in the band on a TV award show, he worked on recording sessions and co-wrote a theme song for an independent feature film. Soon his creative vision expanded to include the moving image, and he worked on a music video directed by recording artist “Prince.” Bruce interned at Columbia Pictures Studios (Sony) during college in the Story, Music, PostProduction, Publicity, Promotion and Sales Departments. He wrote scripts and comedy material, selling to stars such as Joan Rivers. After graduating from UCLA with a Bachelor’s degree in Economics, he worked in Production Accounting at Aaron Spelling Productions, where he also studied the creative and financial processes for primetime network, cable TV and feature production. He later worked for an international subtitle/dubbing postproduction house and for Warner Bros. Entertainment as a feature film and TV Digital Media Technician, creating iTunes VOD conversions of Warner Bros. Pictures new releases and classic films. He recently updated his directing and cinematography skills with the latest, state-of-the-art digital cinema techniques and processes at The Los Angeles Film School, where he made his RED/DSLR-camera digital thesis film entitled Whole ‘Nother Level. Bruce has written, directed, produced, photographed and edited many shorts, commercials and Web promos. Whole ‘Nother Level was selected for the Festival de Cannes Short Film Corner, and continues to be selected at film festivals around the world.
