Director Bio:



John Carlo Rosillo is a Filipino director and cinematographer who is passionate about telling stories related to mental health, even with limited resources. After immigrating and moving to northern Wisconsin, John Carlo, who prefers to be called Carlo, taught himself various skills including editing and cinematography during his middle school years.

As an adult, Carlo has worked in various positions for national brands, while also dedicating his free time to creating award-winning short films with no budget or funding. His ultimate goal with his films is to transcend language barriers and use the power of film to establish an emotional connection with his audience, much like the films he watched when he first moved to the US had for him.

Carlo's films offer a unique perspective on mental health that he believes has not been explored by other filmmakers. Through his work, he aims to bring a new and meaningful perspective to the subject and offer hope to those who may be struggling with mental health issues.
