Jack Schimmel is a Chicago-born, Los Angeles-based filmmaker. He loves making movies almost as much as he loves watching them. He served as writer/director, editor, composer and sound designer on his forthcoming short film, MUG MUSEUM, which he is currently submitting to festivals. Previous directorial work includes his 2019 short SAPPHO DOES IT MATTER, made while at Northwestern University (Class of 2019).

He also works as a freelance editor, with experience working on both film projects and in social media, and has worked as a post producer in unscripted for shows on HGTV and Magnolia. He’s fluent in the Adobe suite and dabbles in sound design and music composition.
