About me

Jules Dameron is an award-winning film and stage director, actor and writer who happens to be deaf.

Jules single-handedly directed the 7-episode Norwegian TV series, Møkkakaffe (Bad Coffee), starring Ipek Mehlum, Hauk Heyerdahl and Anne Ryg. This dramedy series was shown nationwide in Norway on the NRK Channel. Thanks to Jules’ help, this production had the highest viewing of any Døves Media/NRK production thus far.

Jules also directed several episodes in Craig Fogel’s "Don’t Shoot the Messenger" series. Jules created "Reverse Polarity," a provocative series featuring the "Spring Awakening" Broadway stars, Amelia Hensley and Joshua Castille. She also took on "Crazy Town," (starring Blade Runner's Sean Young) a horror comedy written by Kyla Druckman & Carson Turell, in which Jules won an award for Best Director at the Mockfest in Los Angeles.

Jules has directed many music videos in American Sign Language using chiefly deaf talent, such as Walk the Moon’s Different Colors, Adele’s Rolling in the Deep, Bruno Mars’ Lazy Song, Carly Rae Jepsen’s Call Me Maybe, Gotye’s "Somebody I Used to Know," even the Frozen hit song, "Let it Go." Jules has worked with amazing known talents, such as Oscar-Winner Marlee Matlin (Children of a Lesser God), Sean Young (Blade Runner), Sean Berdy (Freeform’s Switched at Birth), Sean Forbes, Hana Hayes (FOX’s Grinder), Ed Gale (Howard the Duck, Child’s Play), and more.

Jules is also responsible for coining the phrase #DeafTalent, which currently spreads global awareness about deaf actors being missed opportunities out of deaf roles, often handed over to hearing actors. She graduated from USC with an MFA degree in film (2009) and Gallaudet University with a BA in Television/Cinema (2003), Jules continues to direct, act and write without a break.
