A little bit about me.

I’m Jeromy Laux. For a long time, if you asked me who I was, I would’ve handed you a résumé.

B.S. in Digital Cinematography. M.F.A. in Media Design from Full Sail. Director of Multimedia and Content Strategy at Wittenberg University. Campaigns, films, brand systems — stories shaped frame by frame. I built a career on knowing how to see — how to light a moment, and structure a narrative.

But my story as a filmmaker didn’t begin in a studio. It began in Springfield, Ohio.

Springfield is known as the Champion City — a place built on industry, grit, and reinvention. That identity leaves an impression on you. It teaches you to pay attention to people, to cycles, to what endures when things change. Before I ever picked up a camera, I was learning how to observe — in quiet neighborhoods, in passing conversations, in the moments most people overlook. That instinct became the foundation of my work.

In 2017, I moved to Columbus to pursue that calling. I refined my craft, built momentum, and stepped into opportunities that once felt out of reach. From the outside, it looked like everything was working.

But internally, I was losing alignment with the perspective that made my work meaningful.

In 2025, everything shifted. What appeared to be a professional pivot was, in truth, a personal reckoning. I reached a point where the life I had built could no longer carry what I hadn’t addressed. Stepping into recovery that year was the most difficult decision I’ve made — and the most important.

It required a level of honesty I had never practiced before — not just in life, but in how I understood storytelling itself.

So I came home.

Returning to Springfield in 2025 wasn’t about stepping backward — it was about reconnecting with where my story began. In a city defined by resilience and renewal, I found a reflection of my own process. And in that return, I found something I didn’t realize I had lost: presence, curiosity, and a sense of joy in simply seeing again.

It allowed me to heal — not just personally, but creatively. To reconnect with the part of me that first picked up a camera without expectation, just a desire to capture something real.

Today, I’m back at Wittenberg University, and I approach my work differently.

Technically, I bring the same experience — directing, cinematography, editing, creative strategy. But the perspective behind the lens has changed. I’m focused on what’s true. What connects. What lasts.

I don’t have everything figured out. But I show up — present, grounded, and committed to telling stories that matter.

And that, more than anything is what I bring to the work.
