Geoff Franklin
Owner | Director | Cinematographer
I am a filmmaker, father, golfer, amateur woodworker, and head chef of taco night at our house. I believe we are here to serve others, and the way I serve is making films to honor the work of talented people. I am committed to my craft of filmmaking and I work to honor others and showcase their craft in my work.
​
My background is in documentary, filming The Other F Word (2011), Play It Forward (2015), Tiny Shoulders, Rethinking Barbie (2018), and Cowboy & The Queen (2023). My documentary background influences my approach, with an emphasis on authenticity and craftsmanship.
​
The best thing about starting Be Film is the people I get to work with. Our team is so incredibly talented and kind, and our long-term clients and partners are the best in the business.
I live in Westlake Village, CA with my wife Kelly and our two sons Calvin & Chase.
