Xi Yu is a New York-based director, writer, and 1st AD.

Didn’t discover her passion for film until 2023. She starts film-making not out of certainty, but out of confusion. She is fascinated about intimacy, ambition, shame, and the fragile ways people connect.

Worked as 1st AD for over 20 vertical projects, many shorts, and several commercials.

Director to YA and Romance vertical. Details in WORK section.
