About Emily Sheskin
Emily Sheskin is an award winning film and commercial director who tells stories full of optimism and resilience, without glossing over life’s challenges. She takes great pride in seeing her short films featured in The New York Times, National Geographic, The Atlantic, and even pirated on TikTok (though she’d prefer credit).
She holds a BFA from NYU's Tisch School of the Arts and is a member of New York Women in Film & Television, Film Fatales, and the FilmShop’s DocShop. She is currently 1/2 of the duo behind Chicken Wing Pictures.
