Michael S. Ojeda was born and raised in Chicago, IL and is a true filmmaker, working as a Director, cinematographer, editor and visual effects artist over the past 15 years. He has made four features over the years, "Lana's Rain", "Savaged" (aka Avenged), "The Russian Bride" and now "Dominique." His film "Savaged" premiered at Sitges International Film Fest and caught the eye of Quentin Tarantino, who raved about the film on the Big Picture podcast, stating it was the best film he'd seen in 2019.
Making movies was my childhood obsession that has never wained and I have devoted my entire life to perfecting the craft. I am a lover of all kinds of cinema, but what I enjoy most is creating genre films with strong emotional undercurrents. I love thrilling audiences, while moving them emotionally at the same time.
