Jeffrey D. Simon

I’m a filmmaker, composer, and co-founder of The Barn, a production company focused on indie movie musicals, and The Silo, its sibling company for... everything else.

Most recently, I Executive Produced the hit reality series King of Drag, now streaming on Revry. I also directed the 2025 musical short You Don’t Say, which has been winning Best Comedy awards at film festivals around the country including: DAM Short, Poppy Jasper, and Inwood Arts. Next up: Indy Fest.

Previously, I wrote, directed, and composed the queer western musical Steam!, which took home “Best in Show” at the Savannah Film Festival. It’s available to stream on Revry, along with the musical short, Spark.

In addition to musicals, I’ve directed branded content, music videos, and two television pilots—Camp Abercorn and Dr. Scotty’s Intergalactic Motel & Café. I also released a pop EP, Fairytales & Fallacies, available on all streaming platforms.

Before founding The Barn, I worked as an Art Director for film and TV. Highlights include Filly Brown, Edge of Tomorrow, Venom, and Spider-Man: Homecoming.

I’m a proud member of the Art Directors Guild and a graduate of both USC School of Cinematic Arts and Savannah College of Art and Design. I live in the Eagle Rock neighborhood of Los Angeles with my husband Alex, where we spend our time cooking, gardening, and constantly rearranging the furniture.

Here's some of my recent work.
