Biography

Maxwell Wang is a filmmaker, writer, and producer whose work moves between darkly comedic, visually stylized original films and the practical business of getting ambitious productions made. After building his foundation on thesis and capstone sets at Interlochen Arts Academy in roles ranging from grip and boom op to Director of Photography and Assistant Director, he expanded into writing, directing, and producing his own projects. Now studying Media Arts Production at Emerson College and co-leading LiGhtBØX Pictures, Wang has developed a practice defined by technical range, surreal instinct, and a useful willingness to enter disorder without romanticizing it.
