DIRECTOR & PRODUCER

BASED iN METRO DETROIT

Aahmi Anderson is a Detroit-raised director and producer who builds his films from emotion outward. Every story starts with a feeling what he wants the audience to carry and the visuals, light, and composition are crafted to amplify that emotion with intention.

Growing up between Windsor and Detroit shaped his perspective. It taught him how different two lives can be even a few miles apart, and that contrast drives his storytelling. Aahmi creates work that lets viewers step into other people’s realities the struggle, the beauty, the rawness exactly as they are.

He thinks fast, creates instinctively, and follows the flow of ideas wherever they lead. His characters often wrestle with environment, identity, or quiet psychological weight, whether they come from privilege or hardship. Through directing and producing, Aahmi aims to expand perspective and remind audiences that every life holds depth beyond what’s seen on the surface.
