About Gabriel Bruskoff

​

Born and raised in Los Angeles, Gabriel did everything he could to avoid a film career. He even earned a BS in Aerospace Engineering from California Polytechnic State University San Luis Obispo. His travels took him to Seattle, where, after a year as a professional engineer, Gabriel knew he could not escape the life of a filmmaker.

​

In 2008, Gabriel created Oldboy Productions. Since then, he has directed over a dozen short films, several of which have screened at festivals across the US, including those in Los Angeles, Chicago, and Atlantic City. He has also written several feature-length screenplays, while his latest, a neo-noir thriller in the vein of Bellflower and The Graduate, is currently in development. 

​

Alongside filmmaking, Gabriel is an avid traveler, cook, and explorer of Los Angeles, and he loves soccer, playing with dogs, and microbrewed beers. He currently resides in Los Angeles.
