Brandon Li
Brandon is a gifted US film maker, previously featured at TravelnRavel with his impressive short `Tokyo Roar'.
Past projects include the successful capture of an atmospheric India, the frenetic energy of Japan and the haunting neglect of a factory ruin.
A 30-something former MTV producer, Brandon is – by his own definition – a shooter, editor, elephant enthusiast and nomad. He lived in Missouri until aged 18, making short films with friends and dreaming of being a filmmaker.
Accepted at the University of North Carolina School of the Arts, there he learned traditional filmmaking. Upon graduating, he worked for MTV on `True Life’; a TV window into the lives, hopes and dreams of young Americans.
According to Brandon, this is where he learned the art of documentary-style film making, becoming more drawn to the “real stuff”, traveling to a different city every 2-weeks for 8-years straight.
