Career

Jeauffre’s passion for exploration and for the sea led him to conceive scientific expeditions and to create a new concept of documentaries he called Action-documentaries, mixing real-life exploration with fictional content. From 1999 to 2016, Jeauffre wrote, directed and produced several films for TV which include , [https://web.archive.org/web/20120316091648/http://www.julesverne.org/en/Nos-films/devilsisland.html/ Devil's Islands] and [https://web.archive.org/web/20120316091704/http://www.julesverne.org/en/Nos-films/redandwhite.html/ Red and White].

A five-month expedition on the Atlantic aboard the tall ship Belem led to his production of the highly acclaimed and award-winning documentaries:

Two fully illustrated books were also published after the expedition ({{Cite book |language=French|title=L'expédition Jules Verne à bord du Trois-Mâts Belem |author=Jean-Christophe Jeauffre |publisher=Equinoxe |year=2003| isbn=978-2-84135-352-1}} and {{Cite book|language=French|title=Esquisses d'un voyage Amazonie-Martinique-Açores |series=Carnets d'ailleurs |author=Jean-Christophe Jeauffre |others= Michel Bez (illus.)|publisher=Équinoxe |year=2002 |isbn=978-2-84135-346-0}}).

All of the aforementioned films are now being distributed in the US on DVD and Blu-ray with narrations by Christopher Lee and Ernest Borgnine.

Passage to Mars, his latest film, opened in US theatres, September 30, 2016. Narrated by Zachary Quinto, Charlotte Rampling and Buzz Aldrin, the film was praised by critics (New York Times, The Village Voice, filmdoo, Space.com...) and received Best Picture Awards (REF). It tells the story of a NASA Arctic expedition across the Northwest Passage: the first motorized crossing of the Arctic sea ice aboard prototype humvee Okarian.
