Hi, I’m Sue-Ming—a Chinese adoptee filmmaker and experiential storyteller based in brooklyn, ny. I blend analytical thinking with creative exploration, driven by a deep curiosity for art, cinema, music, and the independent artists who bring them to life.

Raised in Melbourne, Florida, and a graduate of the University of Florida (B.S. in Psychology, M.S. in Management), I found an unconventional path into filmmaking through sales, marketing, and event production—from corporate to self-employed, I’ve always carried my passion for creative storytelling and community building with me. I enjoy making films that focus on the people less paid attention to, typically with a lot of loneliness and a touch of magical realism, absurdity, and dark humor.

In 2024, I independently produced 11 narrative short films (EROTOMANIAC, Hotter in July, PISSED, etc.) and directed 2 narrative shorts (DOPPELPOND, FILM OF ROCK), 4 music videos (JACKASS, FLEETWOOD//NICKS*, Losing You, CLAYMORE), and 2 documentaries (Adoptee Film Festival, Reel Works Multilingual Storytellers)—in which I also produced. Between projects, I assisted on larger productions like the Google P9 Pro Tutorial Launch, Disney’s MUFASA x Delta Emerging Storytellers doc-commercial, and Common’s Dreamin’ music video.

Currently, I’m interning with writer/director/producer Naima Ramos-Chapman. In November 2024, my team won the Focus Features Best Narrative Award at the Reel Works Film Festival for EROTOMANIAC, a film I produced in April 2024.
