About Andre

André van Heerden is a writer, director and producer with nearly 20 years of experience and a long list of credits on everything from children's TV programming, to hard-hitting documentaries, to theatrically released feature films.

From 1994 to 2012 he worked with Cloud Ten Pictures, a successful production, distribution and marketing company, in many different capacities. Most recently he served as the President of Film and TV production but also handled acquisitions, international distribution and copy writing. André's last released projects with Cloud Ten saw him as writer, director, line producer and postproduction supervisor for a number of feature length documentaries which included "Between Heaven and Ground Zero" and "The 12 Biggest Lies" staring Kevin Sorbo.

André is probably best known though for producing the popular LEFT BEHIND series of films with Kirk Cameron, and SOMEONE HAS TO DIE with Ving Rhames or for directing the feature films REVELATION, TRIBULATION, DECEIVED and JUDGMENT which he also wrote. Comfortable working with budgets ranging from zero to multi-millions, and working with first time actors to Oscar Winners, André stands out for his versatility and dedication to every project he tackles. Lou Gossett Jr. comments: "André's thorough. When he directs, he listens, and he forces us to listen back.”

André's first documentary, done as a video thesis at Carleton University's prestigious Journalism school, was sold to the National Film Board of Canada. He lives in Ontario, Canada with his wife and four children.
