Bradley Wentzel is a SAG-eligible actor, creative, and visual storyteller based in Southern California.
He’s appeared in national campaigns for Mercedes-Benz, the NBA Finals, Daisy Brand, and Smithsonian Channel, along with scripted TV appearances including The Mentalist (CBS). His work blends grounded performance with a strong visual sensibility rooted in his background as a photographer and director.
Bradley’s career began behind the camera, producing branded campaigns, short documentaries, and aviation content for clients like Breitling, IWC Schaffhausen, and Black Bear Brand. His photography has been featured in national advertising and editorial placements, but these days, his focus is firmly on the storytelling that happens in front of the lens.
He is the founder of the Carlsbad International Film Festival and is actively leading the revival of the historic Carlsbad Theatre — a creative and cultural hub in the heart of Carlsbad Village.
