Filmmaker and photographer from USA.

Jacob KRUPNICK is a filmmaker and photographer from New York (USA) who creates stories through movement.

His immersive dance films set in busy cities spark curiosity and delight on the surface, while exploring larger questions about identity and public space. His subjects - dancers, athletes, toddlers - subvert expectations about how they're expected to behave. Krupnick often collaborates with people whose voices are not well-represented to find unconventional and dignifying ways to share narratives.

Jacob's 2012 feature debut, GIRL WALK // ALL DAY was an early crowd-funding phenomenon, using Kickstarter and social media to fund the film, find talent, crew, and organize hundreds of interactive screenings around the world. Told entirely through dance and set to Girl Talk's mashup album, All Day, the film screened at over 30 film festivals, including events at SxSW, Bonaroo, Dia Art Foundation, Mass MOCA, and the Munich Film Festival.
