We welcome Minnie Nguyen as HFPA Scholarship Jury Member!
Minnie Nguyen, known as Mi Minh, is the founder & CEO at WDA Entertainment. Starting out as a professional child actor in Vietnam in 2007, her career took off after she played the lead role in hit Vietnamese musical television show Hat Ca Benh B**g, where she co-starred alongside many other Vietnamese A-list stars. After the show’s success, Minnie continued to take on lead roles for various Vietnamese television shows and feature films.
At the height of her career, Minnie decided to leave the spotlight to pursue her education abroad after recognizing the potential that Vietnamese cinema can offer. She participated in a highly selective performing arts program in Vancouver, Canada, led by award-winning Canadian educator and politician Jack Trovato. Later on, Minnie attended the prestigious School of Cinematic Arts at the University of Southern California, majoring in Film & Television Production. During this time, she shifted her career path to producing and directing.
Additionally, she dedicated the rest of her time to provide mentorship on films and entertainment for young filmmakers, as well as leading creative programs that help families in need for non-profit organizations. In 2018, Minnie founded WDA Entertainment whose mission is to guide and provide a supportive platform for young Asian-American filmmakers and artists who have the courage to dream. Furthermore, she is committed to direct and produce passion projects that advocate positive changes in society.

"Asian World Film Festival (AWFF) was deeply saddened to hear of the tragic death of filmmaker Peng 'Aaron' Wang, a third-year Chapman School Chinese graduate, who was killed in a sand dune accident during a shoot on April 15th.
To pay tribute to this talented young cinematographer, and to celebrate his life, the Festival will be organizing a special event, 'Beginning of the End', in the presence of his family on May 26th at the Landmark Theater, West Pico Boulevard. During the event, which also hopes to raise funds to help his family, a number of Peng's films, including his short film 'Beginning of the End', will be screened for a specially invited audience."
