Stadium has announced the addition of award winning director Henry Behel to its U.S. commercial roster. Known for high-octane camera moves with nuanced world building and performances, Henry has directed campaigns for global brands such as Apple, Jeep, GMC, Ford, the U.S. Air Force, the U.S. Navy and many more.
Henry Behel broke the sound barrier while he was still in the womb, so his obsession with action predates even his birth. He's an experienced backcountry pilot whose aviation background helps him reinvent the way the camera can move in three dimensions. As an accomplished documentarian, Henry’s award winning films have unlocked a never before seen point of view of planes and automobiles. His latest film, ‘26,000 days’ has won multiple film festivals and was recently featured in the Directors Library.
“Henry’s mastery of storytelling supplements an exciting dimension of our roster, bringing a fresh perspective that perfectly complements our existing talent and pushes creative boundaries,” said Tracie Norfleet, executive producer at Stadium. “Henry’s experience as a pilot allows him to place the camera in unique, unexpected places, creating perspectives that bring an entirely new dimension to his work. Alongside his technical prowess, he has an exceptional ability to cultivate authentic human performances and cast talent whose presence feels genuine and impactful.”
“Henry’s innovative approach to storytelling sets him apart in this industry," said Tyler Sgueglia, EP and HOP at Stadium. “His passion for creating visually arresting, emotionally impactful work perfectly aligns with Stadium’s mission to produce content that resonates and inspires. We’re excited to welcome him to the roster and look forward to the exceptional projects he will bring to life.”
For Henry, joining Stadium represents an exciting alignment of mission and values. “Stadium stands out as a place where creativity feels intentional,” shared Henry. “Their focus on collaboration, storytelling, and innovation aligns perfectly with how I approach my work. I’m excited to join a roster that champions artistry while fostering a culture that empowers directors to evolve and take bold creative strides.”
With Henry’s signing, Stadium is poised to tap into his exceptional vision and skill. Stadium is eager to see the groundbreaking work he’ll create and the innovative opportunities this partnership will open up for both brands and agencies.
