WRITING/DIRECTING/EDITING REEL

---

Michael Cherry is a Brooklyn-based filmmaker, who has had experience writing, directing, and editing several short films throughout his career. Having earned his BFA in Film/Video Production from Pratt Institute, Michael has dabbled in many various genres and cinematic mediums over the years, including narrative shorts as well as experimental and interview-form documentaries. He is primarily focused on creating dramatic works that veer into various genres, creating a combined effect that is at one time surreal, and other times realistic. The dissolution of reality, perspective, and existentialism are frequent themes in his work, and he often tries to explore the nature of the human psyche by setting his stories in dark, challenging environments.
