Director Biography - Ramsey Haytham Khawaja

Floridian director, editor, and writer. I wanted to be a filmmaker since I was 12 making stop-motion LEGO videos in my room. I worked in TV production in middle and high school and went to UCF for my Film BFA. I graduated in 2020 and am working as a freelance editor.

Director Statement

I wanted to make something more experimental but still have a narrative throughline. Since this was my Senior Capstone project, I wanted to see what could be achieved narratively through experimental void scenes, as well as seeing how a panic attack/ anxiety (both things I experience) could be portrayed on screen.
