Jackie McHugh's career as a director, producer, and screenwriter began with pandemic era Tik Tok virality when he shared his screenplay, "Four Cut and Run" on the platform. The New Jersey filmmaker, then aged 17, reached 6 million people across the world with his satirical take on American adolescent true crime. He is drawn to discussing complicated social experiences through their comedic undertones, while addressing the moral gray areas within them.
"Since I was really little I was always fascinated with storytelling and conveying emotions to other people," McHugh stated when asked where he draws his inspiration, "I want all of my work to change how people feel, see the world, and give people that 'wow,' that magic if you will."
