Jason Goldman has been a New Yorker for 20 years, and gained his earliest filmmaking experience under the tutelage of Albert Maysles where he learned the foundation of direct cinema. Applying those elements to both short- and long-form documentaries, his producing career has included worldwide ad campaigns, short documentaries and feature-length original films. Most recently, Jason turned to directing in completing his first feature, Rowdy Girl, premiering at Hot Docs 2023. In 2018 he produced Sidelined, the first short documentary financed and distributed by A&E IndieFilms, which premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival. He is a mentor with ReelWorks, an organisation that teaches filmmaking to under-served city youth, and is active in the non-profit collective Filmshop.
