A Naarm/Melbourne-based filmmaker with a focus on multicultural stories
Alex is an emerging filmmaker based in Melbourne, Australia. Since finding out his mother had been an actor in China, Alex knew he wanted to work in the creative arts.
His multicultural family drama ‘Unsaid’ won Best Short Fiction at the 2022 Multicultural Film Festival and earned the Emerging Filmmaker Award at the North Bellarine Film Festival. The film premiered online on SBS OnDemand. Alex’s next award-winning project, ‘Unseen’, a high-concept sci-fi, continues its successful run on the international festival circuit.
As a storyteller, Alex frequently delves into themes of cultural diversity, fringe societies, and familial connections, weaving deeply personal narratives that resonate across cultures.
Alex recently completed his master’s degree of Film and Television at the Victorian College of the Arts and since then, underwent his residency with Cinespace in 2024. He continues to make films that explore identity, belonging, and human connection.
