About

Juda Goldstein is a filmmaker, cinematographer, and visual effects artist based in College Park, Maryland. With a strong background in compositing and digital effects, Juda frequently incorporates high-concept visuals into grounded narratives, allowing him to realize stories that would traditionally exceed the scope of independent productions. He has produced several successful films, including The Hunter (2022), The Hunter II (2023), and Find My (2024), all of which performed exceptionally well at the Broadneck Film Festival. Find My was awarded Best Overall Film, while The Hunter II and Find My were Official Selections at the All-American High School Film Festival in 2023 and 2024. Juda has collaborated with Filmsters Academy on multiple projects, including Fan-Fare, an Official Selection at the Annapolis Film Festival and the All-American High School Film Festival, where it won the Emerging Talent Award, as well as Failure to Prepare, which was nominated for Best Comedy at the All-American High School Film Festival. His more recent films include Fireside Conversations, a dramatic exploration of generational memory and conflict, and Who Knew, a dark comedy produced in collaboration with Filmsters Academy, on which Juda served as Director of Photography and contributed visual effects work. Juda is currently a Cinema and Media Studies student at the University of Maryland and is employed with Maryland Athletics, while continuing to work as a visual effects artist and filmmaker on new narrative projects.
