Louise Zhang.

I’m Louise, a Writer, Director, Cinematographer and AI Creative Producer based in New York.

I grew up in Shanghai and moved to New Hampshire for high school at fifteen. I wanted to see more of the world. I spent three wonderful years there, discovering a love for language, literature and visual storytelling. I later studied computer science, curious about how technology works and how it shapes our lives.

As a filmmaker, I’m drawn to people caught between worlds. I care about stories we don’t see enough, especially those about women’s lives. Growing up between cultures has made home and belonging recurring themes in my work. I’m also interested in how we live with technology as it becomes a bigger part of our everyday lives. That curiosity carries into my work with AI.

My films have screened at festivals including Cairo and Palm Springs. I’ve also directed commercial series for audiences around the world.

Outside of work, I enjoy fantasy novels, tennis, and long walks with my dog, Sola.
