Biography

Jon Osei is a Ghanaian-Filipino Canadian filmmaker from Toronto, raised in Brampton.

Since 2020, Jon has made character-driven shorts across drama, comedy, and romance, mixing entertainment with educational, and philosophical themes. His directorial debut short A Recipe for Romance won Best Student Film (North America) at the Alternative Film Festival (Fall 2024) and Best Romance (5:01-20:00 Minutes) at the Couch Film Festival (Fall 2024). His breakout short, Clockwork Tension won Best Drama at the New Jersey Film Awards (May 2025), Best Drama (Canada - Short Category) at the Alternative Film Festival (Summer 2025), and Best Short Film (Canada) at the Brampton International Nollywood Film Festival (2025).
