Growing up in St. Augustine, Florida, Raphael Cosme began showcasing his filmmaking voice on Youtube on the channel "Kaijuzilla621" where he made a bunch of fan-films ranging from Godzilla to Jurassic Park. His first feature length films were Mushino and Godzilla Apex which combined are over 4 hours long. Most of these projects were made up of many people from all over the world that he directed over Discord. When he attended Jacksonville University that's where he began directing entire crews in person. Gnomes is the first original film he's directed. Gnomes has been recently nominated by the American Society of Cinematographers for the Student Heritage Graduate Award 2023. Raphael has graduated from Jacksonville University with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Film & Humanities. He hopes to continue making shorts and features for as long as possible.
