My name is Eric Bendross and I am an award-winning American director, social media content creator, writer, producer and former actor based in Central Florida. Additionally, I was born in 1980 in Miami, Florida and am best known for the multi-award winning, emotionally riveting Love Conquers…[short film]. Love Conquers…[short film] was awarded Gold by the prestigious Telly Awards, one of the highest honors in the industry. I am also known for my powerful, dynamic docushort: My Skin Is Not A Sin, which endeavors to be a racial healing conversation starter. ​Moreover, I pride myself on being a compelling visual storyteller, primarily for audiences consisting of young adults to senior citizens of varying gender identities and creeds. These individuals are also sympathetic to the plight of the disadvantaged and underserved in our society today. Therefore, it is second nature for me to bring every project to fruition with immense passion and precision. I also enjoy spending time with family, especially my lovely wife: plus size model, inspirational speaker and actor, Nikkie Bendross. My earlier projects feature her and our two sons. ​What's more, I have appeared in numerous television, independent, and Hollywood film productions including OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network's Checked Inn; Investigation Discovery's I (Almost) Got Away With It, Wives With Knives, and Sex Sent Me To The Slammer; VH1's Swab Stories; truTV's South Beach Tow; Purple Flowers; Universal Pictures' 2 Fast 2 Furious and more! ​Notably, I earned my Bachelor of Science Degree in Digital Cinematography from Full Sail University, which is “ranked as one of the Top 5 Best Film Degree Programs in the U.S. by Intelligent.com.” In conclusion, I declare it to be my glorious pleasure to continue making significant contributions that enrich underprivileged communities and help the younger generation of visual storytellers to thrive! Thus, as one of the world’s budding visionaries, I am sincerely grateful for the opportunity to create impactful and inspiring media content for all to experience.
