About Me
- Shaz Bennett
- Silverlake, CA, United States
- I'm a writer, filmmaker, performer, storyteller, film programmer. My films and performances pieces have been shown all over the US, Mexico, Canada and in Europe in film festivals, theatres, museums and abandoned warehouses. For the past 10 years I've been Programming at AFI FEST in Los Angeles. I've worked at the LA Film Festival, San Francisco Film Festival, Monaco International Emerging Talent Film Festival and the Sundance Institute. I've consulted and been on juries and panels for festivals around the US, Mexico, Canada, South Africa, Burkina Faso, Sweden, France, and Denmark. I watch 1000's of movies a year and that's the job I've wanted since I was 15 years old taking tickets at the US Film Festival in Salt Lake City. I live in Silverlake, CA with my filmmaker/DJ better half and our cat. We curate a night of film, spoken word and music at the Echo Park Film Center called "A Shot and A Beer" and "Third Saturday" screenings and stories in Chinatown at North Hill Exhibitions. I write.
