WinnerBio
Hey there! I’m Hunaina Hirji, a first-year Film and Television Production major at Chapman University with an emphasis on Sound Design. My passion for storytelling drives me to create films that not only entertain but also challenge norms, inspire change, and spark meaningful conversations.
When I’m not immersed in the world of filmmaking, I dedicate myself to community service. I’m passionate about using my filmmaking skills to support nonprofits, raise awareness, and shed light on the incredible work of local organizations. Whether it’s through creating videos or documenting events, I’m always looking for ways to give back and make a positive impact.
My ultimate goal is to tell stories that foster positive transformation. I’m determined to continue honing my craft at a four-year film school and beyond, creating narratives that leave a lasting impression on audiences and contribute to social change.
