Hi, My name is Ian McDonald and I am a documentary filmmaker. By shining a light on voices and stories that might otherwise go unheard, I strive to create thought-provoking films that inspire empathy and challenge norms.
I was born and raised in Los Angeles California and recently graduated from Loyola Marymount University. For as long as I can remember, I have always wanted to be a filmmaker. I was drawn to documentary because of its ability to capture authentic moments and emotions, and for the freedom it affords me to explore new places and cultures without limitations. My work strives to push the boundaries of the genre by experimenting with new techniques and styles, always with the goal of creating meaningful and impactful stories that challenge and provoke thought. I believe that storytelling has the power to change the world, and I am committed to creating work that inspires and connects us all.
