Paris Zheng

Founder and Creative Director

Paris Zheng immersed herself in film, identifying it as an optimal way to tell a story and ignite the imagination. Her degree in sociology from Carlton University gave her the tools for deeper insight into the human condition. She has honed her skills outside of film in the radio and TV industries. As a result, she is able to create work that is committed to story, stays on message, and endures trends, novelty, and fads.

 

Zheng dreams big, with a desire to bring ideas to the screen in unique and fantastical ways. Her enthusiasm is contagious and her ideas are spectacular.
