Director Statement

Keep Needing Me (KNM) has been a project that has tested every member of our student team, pushing us to develop our skills and prove ourselves. I believe that KNM is an example of great student work, be it in the quality of the final film or in the great collaboration that grew during production. KNM is a thriller-horror that is sure to keep you on the edge of your seat. Enjoy!
