Director Biography - Jason Reimer

Jason Reimer began his work in film as a composer on several projects including JESUS HENRY CHRIST (2003 Academy Award winner student comedy). In the early years he produced and performed live Video Art installations before moving behind the camera to first direct music videos for Sub Pop band Baptist Generals, Sarah Jaffe and Mind Spiders.

In 2010 he helped helped re-open the Texas Theater and joined Aviation Cinemas with whom he collaborates frequently including CORK's CATTLEBARON, BOB BIRDNOW... both of which made the festival circuit.

In 2014 Reimer and his production crew completed THE OBJECT filmed partially in Northern CA and Texas featuring partner Eric Steele in the frazzled lead role. In February 2015 Reimer wrote and directed "FIGUREHEAD" that presents the fictionalized whereabouts of character actor Harry Goaz (Twin Peaks, St. Nick) co-starring Brandy Burre (The Wire, Actress. Listen Up Philip).

He’s a co-founder of the Oak Cliff Film Festival and the Creative Director and Partner at Aviation Cinemas who operate the historic art house Texas Theatre in Dallas.
