Bio
Andre Alfa is a multi-faceted, award-winning writer and director. He has directed films, commercials, music videos and video custom content and has worked with AR, VR and 360.
Winner of numerous awards, including the Sundance Channel Award for Best Dramatic Short and multiple Best Film awards, Andre wrote and directed the award-winning underground hits "The Pathos of Distance" and "Broken-Mirror Music," which garnered plenty of acclaim from Charles Bukowski fans.
Andre worked on over thirty films, as well as music videos and commercials, before segueing into advertising, where he managed the development, planning and execution of strategic marketing campaigns for clients that included Kia and NBC Universal. These included the launches of hit shows such as "Suits," "Psych," "White Collar," "Royal Pains," "Alphas," and "Face Off" to name a few.
Andre's many years leading advertising campaigns have instilled a trust and confidence with his clients as he gets behind the camera. A story-first director with a strong and distinct visual aesthetic, his work has been described as "gripping," "thoughtful," "provoking," "visually stunning" and "viscerally intense." With a strong feel for pacing, Andre is also an actor’s advocate who has a deep rapport with the characters and the actors.
Having grown up on several continents, including Asia and Europe, Andre moved to the United States from France to earn his B.A. in Film, TV & Radio from Pepperdine University in Malibu, CA before graduating from the Los Angeles Film School in Hollywood, CA. Among his classmates were Jillian Longnecker, Kevin Atkinson, Mark Neveldine, as well as Ariel Vromen and Brian Taylor.
Andre recently made his highly anticipated feature film directorial debut with "Blackstock Boneyard," a fast-paced, grisly horror film based on an untold true story of racial injustice.
On “Blackstock Boneyard:” I’ve always had a strong interest in history, so I find it natural I’m more drawn to truth than I am to fiction. What makes this story so compelling is not just that it’s true, but that a long time ago, a lot of people went through a lot of trouble to make sure that truth was buried deep. I’m excited because I get to exhume it.
Andre is currently in development on an untitled psychological thriller with “Blackstock Boneyard” writer Stephen George and “Teenage Vampire” Producer Aaron Lee Lopez.
