Justin Zimmerman (born August 16, 1977) is a nationally recognized filmmaker and director. He has had numerous creative positions, including teaching at three colleges, and his production company, Bricker-Down Productions™, has been the recipient of several national awards.
Early Life and Education
Justin Zimmerman was born in Greenwich, Connecticut in 1977 and grew up in Wooster, OH. Zimmerman attended the Ohio State University, gaining an undergraduate degree in English, and attended Ohio University, graduating with an MFA in Film.
First Films and Professional Career
Zimmerman’s first film, ”Meeting Again,” was produced during his graduate studies and detailed the story of the Millfield Mine Disaster, as told by the last living survivor. This film was the recipient of the prestigious Parry/Billman grant and was featured at several Ohio conferences and festivals. His Ohio University Master’s thesis, “One of Five,” had been featured in multiple national film festivals and is currently distributed by Filmakers Library . “One of Five” crosscuts five families from across Ohio, dealing with varied mental, physical and emotional handicaps.
Zimmerman proceeded to teach film studies at Ohio University, and was the instructor for the first undergraduate Sound for Film as well as Violence Through the Western Genre. He also served as a TA for Cinematography I and II for Director of Photography Richie Sherman.
He ran the Athens County School Based Mentoring Program on a Department of Education grant for a year, before taking over a position at Denison University’s Cinema Department and then moving to start a Film, Video and Media emphasis for Western State College of Colorado. During this time, he received two grants from the Ohio Art Council – an Individual Artist Grant and a Fellowship– making him one of the youngest grant recipients of the largest amounts for film work.
Zimmerman’s next film, “The Calling,” was aired on national public television through NETA and won two Telly Awards.
Current Projects and Career
His feature length adaptation of Stephen King’s “The Man Who Loved Flowers” was approved by the author and well received, but failed to find backing before the option elapsed. The script has never been released to the public, though a series of preproduction images shot on location in Maine were.
At Western State College, Zimmerman completed several experimental films and began a yearly film and video Showcase for his students. His films “Lovesick,” “XC ” and “Gothic” were shown at film festivals and museums across the country.
His most recent work, “Fireland,” examines one of America’s largest nursing home fires, an event that changed many federal and state laws but was ignored due to the JFK assassination the same week. Fireland premiered at the Ohio State Wexner Center and is used across Ohio for safety trainings and inspections.

Chilled vacuum packed beef is a process of preserving beef meat.
The object of this process is to prolong the shelf life of beef, that is to say, prolong the time between production and consumption of the beef for humans , in such a way that the result is assured, without having to recur to freezing or other methods of conservation.
The period of prolongation of the quality of the product depends on factors involved in the vacuum process, as each one interact during the procedure.
The object of this process is that cuts be covered by a film that acts as a barrier to water vapour as well as to oxygen, in such a way to obtain an adequate microclimate between the film and the cut for the proliferation of beneficial bacteria such as lactic(similar as those present in yoghurt), amongst others, presenting in this way a habitat not propitious for the development of undesired bacteria that could damage the meat and result it risky for human consumption, diminishing by this way to a minimum development of same.
