Today we’d like to introduce you to Urna Odon.
Hi Urna, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I am Urna, from Hohhot, Inner Mongolia. I moved to Tokyo, Japan, when I was fifteen and went to the United States for my undergraduate studies. Speaking three languages and being immersed in multiple cultures has made me a ‘contradictory’ person. My goal is to produce good work in a pleasant film set.
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall, and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Beyond the technical aspects, proving my abilities and exceeding expectations is a personal challenge that motivates me to continually improve and perfect my skills.
My professional journey has been filled with its fair share of challenges, but overcoming them has been a crucial part of my growth. The lessons I have learned along the way have shaped me both personally and professionally, constantly reminding me of the critical importance of collaboration, communication, and adaptability. These qualities are essential tools in the ever-changing film industry. As a producer, my aim is to identify and nurture unique artistic voices. I want my work to stand as a testament to the power of storytelling and its ability to connect us all on a deeper level.
Appreciate you sharing that. What else should we know about what you do?
