Andrew Kadikian is an award-winning writer/director and editor, born on the 6th of August, 1991 in Glendale, California, USA. He is known for Athena (2017), Corações em Fogo (2019), and VestiCon 2019 (2019). Interested in the craft of filmmaking from a very young age, Andrew participated in all available cinematic arts classes and in many extracurricular filmmaking activities while attending Crescenta Valley Senior High School from 2006 to 2010. In those days when Andrew had to be an all-in-one filmmaker, he gravitated to editing as a niche due to how much storytelling power rests in that part of the process. It was then that he decided that his path to becoming a director would run through the editing bay. He then attended film school at The Art Institute of California - Hollywood through 2014 before beginning his career in the film industry and digital media. Between 2011 and 2021, Andrew participated in twenty competitions of the 48-Hour Film Project in Los Angeles and San Diego, becoming a firm pillar of the competition's filmmaking community over those years.
