Jia Min Tan

Jia Min produced her first independent short film Closer Apart at the age of 17, and after screenings at several international festivals and public reception, this experience cemented her belief in filmmaking’s ability to connect people. Since then, she has continued practicing her craft on short films, and has worked on longer form projects such as Circle Line, Singapore's first creature feature, and 1000 Cups to Midnight, an online series. Currently in development for her first feature project as a producer, Jia Min strives to tell stories that evoke perspectives by reflecting the complexity that is our shared human experience.
