Biography, Sam Aylia Sako
I
was born in a little village called Telaskif in northern Iraq. I
attended high school in Baghdad (Baghdad High) and after graduation at
the age of eighteen, my family moved to Greece. There, I
learned a new culture and language, and soon thereafter moved to
United States of America (Detroit, Michigan). I grew up in
Detroit and attended Wayne County Community College and received an
A.A. degree in Liberal Arts. Then off to California. In
1982 I started attending the University of California in Los Angeles
(UCLA), where I majored in Film and Cinema. I then continued my
studies at California State University in Northridge and received my
B.A. degree in Motion Picture and Television in 1987.
When
I finished my studies, I started my professional career in the field
of MTV. I worked as a freelancer for independent films and major
motion picture companies locally and internationally. I have
produced several features and short films for the US and Middle
Eastern markets. Throughout the years in working with major studios, I have gained experience and knowledge in developing skills, methods and guides to conduct my work on a professional level.
