Director Biography - Ash Uzun

Ash Uzun is an up and coming writer / director, from New York and raised in both the Italian and Turkish cultures. He has recently completed a three year graduate program for TV & Film Production and Screenwriting. His love of movies and television started at a young age where he would bribe his babysitters to let him watch all the scary content he was not allowed to consume. Wes Craven’s Scream and Joss Whedon’s Buffy the Vampire Slayer have shaped and influenced his writing style, while implementing his own version of diversity, inclusion, childhood trauma, and a painful pinch of gay-sarcasm. He typically writes strong LGBTQ+ characters and/or resilient female protagonists. His voice speaks for those who have been silenced and will strive to be a champion for them as well. Ash wants to help make this world a little more loving and understanding before death inevitably takes us all.
