Jeremy St. Romain

Jeremy St. Romain makes films that matter. A writer-director from southeastern Louisiana, he tells stories that pull you in with their emotional clarity, then surprise you with deeper undercurrents. Rooted in Gulf South folklore and sharpened by a screenwriter’s precision, his work turns intimate moments into portals for big ideas.

Through his company, Under BQE Productions, Jeremy creates films and visual campaigns that reveal the extraordinary hidden in plain sight. His collaborators include Habitat for Humanity, Altadena Library, Ness Arts, and schools and school districts in NYC, drawn to his instinct for making any story feel both personal and expansive. His background as a photographer and educator is evident in every frame: crafted, intentional, and human.

His TV pilot Superstition won the Big Apple Film Festival and was recognized by Austin, Cinequest, Save the Cat, and Final Draft's Big Break. His student, short film Pony Bar, earned a Kodak Student Film Award nomination and won at the Women in Film Festival.

Jeremy earned his MFA in Screenwriting from the Feirstein Graduate School of Cinema and now teaches in Hofstra University’s LA program, where he mentors emerging filmmakers while deepening his voice.

He’s currently raising funds for Blood Harmony, a lyrical short film about a musician returning to the Gulf Coast to finish a song—and face herself. He’s also in the thick of writing a feature biopic about Jimmy Buffett. Because some stories are too wild, too rich, and too full of life to be told small.

Whether he’s capturing a quiet rupture or a moment of awe, Jeremy’s aim is the same: make films that stay with you. Stories that entertain, disarm, and maybe change how you see the world.
