Hae Ji Cho (she/her) is a Korean Brazilian American creative currently based in Los Angeles, CA.
With a BA in Film from Emerson College, she pursued a career in the entertainment industry where she has worked in scripted and unscripted media as a story producer, production coordinator, casting producer, assistant to award-winning directors, and indie producer. These opportunities have led her to projects that have gone on to receive nominations for the Clio Awards, Webby Awards, Shorty Awards, and more.
Throughout her career, she has built pitch decks for agency bids, designed production bibles, sourced stories featured in multiple national campaigns, and worked closely with directors and producers from pre-production to post (and beyond). She has also had the invaluable opportunity to interview hundreds of individuals from diverse backgrounds and to honor their stories through authentic portrayals in the media.
In 2023, she co-wrote and co-directed the short film BIRTHDAY DINNER. Later that same year, she was awarded the 2024 Voices With Impact Production Grant, allowing her to create the film ALL MEAT DIET. Her creative work shines light on the beauty and grief within the endless contradictions and peculiarities found in the human experience. Moving into new projects, she hopes to continue collaborating with artists who value nuance, vulnerability, humor, and compassion.
In her free time, you may often find her admiring interior design or making pottery at her local studio.
