Director Biography - Nicolas Tung

My name is Nicolas Tung, and I'm an indie filmmaker from a small East-Asian country of Taiwan, now living in California in the US. I started working with multimedia content from the age of 10, usually in the area of editing a number of my own web videos, and composing music. I started working on my skills in the field of cinema in 7th grade from an opportunity given to me by a small student-run film "studio" to participate in their proposed web series. Though the production was ultimately unsuccessful, I learned a lot from the year-long experience working on the production and was able to learn from the failures and carry the skills over to the US when I moved in 2018, where I've made a dozen of films with the film education and a number of enthusiastic individuals willing to work alongside me.

Director Statement

I created this short film immediately after my graduation from middle school. I felt like it's time to make my first true short film after my acceptance into a filmmaking-oriented high school; Looking back at it, it seemed more like a vanity project as opposed to a story-oriented film. I wanted to know what it feels like to make a movie, before being on a more professional/higher budget film set. This film is what sets me towards the path I am on today.
