She loves life. She is passionate. She believes that a piece of good art can make the world better.
Born and raised in Hong Kong, the financial heart of Asia, Lo nonetheless only aspired to be a positive influence to the world through arts. She abandoned the opportunity of being a lawyer after obtaining a double-degree in Business Administration and Law at the University of Hong Kong, only to move to Taiwan to work in the Internet commercial industry.
In the four years living in Taiwan, Lo took part in producing, writing, directing, editing and occasionally acting in more than 50 Internet variety shows and commercials (some of which attained more than 1 million views). With the strike-for-the-best personality, she looks up to being a world class professional. She therefore decided to pursue filmmaking profession by attending M.F.A. production program at University of Southern California. She now views filmmaking as her life's passion and calling; she is ready to dedicate her life to it.
Her works tend to show social issues or internal conflicts with psychological elements and are not limited to comedy, drama or thriller genres. She insists that no matter what story she is telling, it has to reflect some problems human beings are facing, especially in the current particular time period.
Who lives my life? was inspired by many of the director's girlfriends from Hong Kong, who were aware of the fact that they were not living a life they want, they however decided to be oblivious. They complained about their career, their marriage, their family... without taking any action to make a change. They were waiting for something to happen, someone to come and save them. The director was hoping that they will be like our main character - Belle, to gather "courages" from "imaginations".
