Zoe Alice Camina is a Brooklyn-based filmmaker, born in Venice Beach and raised in New Jersey. She strives to make films with unconventional narratives and honest depictions of life rarely shown on screen. With an eclectic background directing campy horror shorts, cinematic music videos and heartfelt indie comedies, she just wants to tell stories we never hear and probably should.
During her high school years, Zoe Alice fastidiously studied 80s horror in moldy suburban basements, shaping her aesthetic for years to come. It was during this time she became infatuated with the idea of bringing a queer feminist perspective to the genre she loved, yet felt excluded from.
Eventually, with a guerilla approach to filmmaking inspired by John Waters, she began filming subversive shorts featuring non-actor friends, shot in abandoned locations and screened in punk venues. This lead to the cult classic "Death Virgins," following a group of bloodthirsty feminists hellbent on destroying the patriarchy.
Expanding her repertoire, she then directed, edited & co-wrote the indie comedies 'Bonebag,' and 'Sex Neutral,' while exploring experimental cinema techniques in her arthouse series 'True Love Forever.' Commercially, she has edited for Alexander Wang, Escada, Vice Media, Conde Nast and musicians such as Quelle Rox, Arielle Vakni and BBQT.
She is currently developing a horror feature film exploring the complicated nature of substance use.
