Erik Schultz Stunt Coordinator · 2nd Unit Director
About Erik
I'm a stunt performer and coordinator obsessed with clarity on set: everyone knows the plan, everyone knows their lane, and the shot still looks reckless. Years in the trenches taught me that respect for safety and respect for the frame aren't opposites — they're the same discipline.
Whether I'm doubling talent, driving a gag, or running a team through a three-day action block, I show up prepared, direct, and ready to adapt when the location, weather, or script changes at lunch.
