Jeff Mayfield

Jeffrey has been immersed in the world of stunts since 2014. He has been training with bladed weapons since childhood, which helped him transition into the world of theater and the live stunt shows in the various theme parks of Southern California. Over the years he has transitioned his focus to film and television, performing stunts in projects such as “Scream 5”, “The Winchesters”, “Legacies”, and “Gotham Knights”. In the last year he has founded “Crash&Burn Stunts”, a company that provides equipment and resources to all productions from big-budget pictures to independent projects and student films, with the goal of making stunt elements accessible for all filmmakers.”
