Assistant Director

Eric Sheehan is an Assistant Director, facilitator, organizer, leader, and accomplice. He has helmed independent features, commercials, music videos, infomercials, reality TV, and short films since 2009 in Los Angeles. Eric fell into Assistant Directing. A natural thirst for efficiency and calmness at the center of the storm make him right at home running set, thanks to Gaffer who told him to be the AD. Eric prefers to go above and beyond beforehand to get the right plan for the right job, though he revels in the challenge of rescheduling a day over breakfast. His puzzling and problem solving skills are among his greatest talents. A natural born AD, Eric rides the line, mocking crews into productivity and generating momentum, while keeping everyone on the same team.

Eric has helmed 10+ feature films, with many going to festivals like Cannes, Sundance, and Fright Fest. He also scheduled and helmed the behemoth, award winning, full live action video game from Annapurna Interactive, Telling Lies. The 240+ page script consisting of Skype conversations happening in two locations filming simultaneously was a mind bending challenge to schedule and execute. Watch Eric talk about the process below.

Though at home working in the narrative feature world, the commercial, music video, and content worlds are also a natural habitat for him. Commercial clients include Pfizer, MTV's Scream, Warby Parker, [Adult Swim], Ruffles, and the Resident Evil movie series. In the music video world, he's worked with the Far East Movement, Iggy Azalea, Ry X, KEM, Sage The Gemini, Aimee Osborne, and everyone's favorite saddest pop queen, Lana Del Rey.
