Jeff Frumess is an American regional filmmaker, writer, and podcaster from Westchester, NY.
Career
Film
Frumess was inspired to take up filmmaking after watching The Snowball Effect — a documentary chronicling the production of Kevin Smith's first feature film, Clerks. Frumess built off this interest by filming a series of amateur short films.
Frumess's initial breakthrough was provided by live music production and documentary work. Over time, Frumess has shifted into narrative filmmaking, producing feature films Romeo’s Distress and Gouge Away. A third film, My Shadow, is currently in production.
"They Came From Lodi"
Upon returning home to New York, Frumess began working on a documentary project recording the history of the seminal punk band The Misfits told through the eyes of those who surround the band as well as their contemporaries and notable musicians who would draw great influence from the original 1977-1983 band.
