Director Biography
Jason Park, a second-generation Korean-American born and raised from the city of Chicago, started making films when he would take his dad’s camera and reenact his favorite movies with his friends that were truly a horrific sight to behold. Park’s short films and music videos have played at several international film festivals. Currently, he is developing his first feature film, Transplant, a film he co-wrote and will direct, which was selected for the 2020 Sundance Screenwriting Intensive. He is a 2020 Sundance Feature Film Fellow, was selected to the Student Symposium Program at the 40th Telluride Film Festival, and received a screenwriting fellowship through Film Independent.
