Kris Belman is a Mexican American filmmaker who lives in Los Angeles by way of Akron, Ohio. He exploded onto the scene with his breakout debut documentary feature More Than A Game, the definitive film about LeBron James on his journey to fame.
Kris translated his success in documentaries to the world of commercials helming campaigns for brands such as Burger King, Verizon, Microsoft, and Heinz to name a few. His work has received countless accolades including recognition at Cannes Lions, D&AD, the One Show, and the Webby’s for Burger King “Whopper Neutrality,” and recognition at D&AD and the One Show for his work with Heinz featuring Ed Sheeran.

And he’s one helluva prankster.
