Brian Springer is an American television director and producer, and new media artist born in 1959.

Brian Springer spent a year searching for footage grabbing back channel news feeds not intended for public consumption. The result of his research was "Spin". This 1995 feature length documentary gives an insight into the perception of how television is used to try and control and distort the American public's view of reality.cite web |title=Spin |publisher= Video Data Bank |url= http://www.vdb.org/smackn.acgi$tapedetail?SPIN |accessdate= 2008-07-25 ] Springer produced "Spin" as a followup to "Feed" (1992), for which he also provided raw satellite footage.

In 2007, Springer released another documentary, "The Disappointment: Or, The Force of Credulity".cite web |title=The Disappointment: Or, The Force of Credulity |publisher= Video Data Bank |url= http://www.vdb.org/smackn.acgi$tapedetail?DISAPPOINT |accessdate= 2008-07-25 ]
