Gigi Shum

A documentary director and narrative producer based in Manchester, MA Directing graduate at MetFilm School. 

Formerly Live TV Newscast Director in Hong Kong Cable TV News, experienced in live directing and crew management. I am also professional in production management through working as a Media Project Manager in an international corporate company, handling localisation projects for global clients including Microsoft, Amazon, FujiFilm, LVMH etc. 

My passion for exploring the neglected truth in the world  has led me to pursue documentary filmmaking, focusing on topics about environmental issues, running, and veganism. My journalism background allows me to find the intimate narratives that reflect the profound complexities of humanities.

I am confident, proactive, good with pressure, highly organised, and an effective communicator.
