Victoria Lesiw

Victoria Lesiw is an American filmmaker based in Brooklyn, New York. Shortly after graduating from the University of Michigan in 2004, where she studied architecture, Lesiw began her professional career in film at NYC-based commercial post-production house Crew Cuts.
She began to branch out from the ad world in 2007, when she teamed up with director Nate Taylor to create the machinima parody, "MMOvie". With millions of hits internationally, the short was a massive online success and was nominated for a Golden Trailer Award and a Webby Award.
In 2009, working with Brooke Ellison and James Siegel, she edited the documentary Hope Deferred which won the Mass Impact Award for Documentary at the Boston Film Festival, as well as the Humanitarian Award for Documentary at the Long Island International Film Festival.
Lesiw is currently wrapping up post production of her first full-length feature film, Forgetting the Girl, an adaptation of a short story of the same title written by Peter Moore Smith, directed by Nate Taylor.
