Eric Norcross is an award-winning filmmaker, published writer, and podcaster. He started making films in 1998 as a student at the Portland Arts & Technology High School in Portland, Maine, where he won his first recognitions for his experimental work. He made his first narrative film, Sixteen Stories his senior year, with a cast of over twenty, including local celebrities.
Since then, Eric has created more than 25 films, some features, some shorts and experimental works.
