ABOUT
Micah Knapp is an (international) award-winning producer and director, based in Seattle, Washington. As a child, Micah watched Steven Spielberg's "Jurassic Park" and it changed the course of his life forever. A dream was born.

He has pursued this venture into adulthood, turning his passion and dream of telling stories into a career.

​
What sets Micah apart is his unique voice and background. Micah tells stories from a place of empathy, compassion, and genuine care for others. Micah's style is distinctive, blending drama with surrealism, dreamlike sequences, and elements of nostalgia. It often features slow motion, dramatic visuals, synchronized music, minimal dialogue, powerful moments, and a verité documentary approach. This naturalistic yet edgy style has been compared to a mix of Terrence Malick and David Lynch.
