About Me

DIRECTOR*SCREENWRITER - MichelleOsorio.com

Filmmaking is my passion. Right now, my pet project is a geek comedy web series called ./shutdown . I've also directed (or was director of photography for) award-winning short films and music videos. I've also worked on some Hollywood stuff like Creepshow 3 and Day of the Dead 2 and was a casting assistant for TV Shows like Deal or No Deal and The Biggest Loser.

I enjoy playing Guitar Hero, reading science fiction/fantasy and exercising/singing and dancing/buying corsets and other gothic wear/shooting guns (both firearms and airsoft) and hanging out with my pals.

If you like our new web series, ./shutdown ,
