Conrad Faraj is a Honduran-American filmmaker based in Cleveland, Ohio. Known for his bold visual storytelling and passion for genre cinema, Faraj has directed four feature films and dozens of award-winning shorts. His viral YouTube series Mudblood sparked a global fanbase, amassing over 60 million views on TikTok, while his NBC/Universal-backed short film Wedding Runner won first place in a national competition.

A self-taught director who began making films at age 13, Faraj's first major short The Artist was hand-selected by Robert Duvall and James Caan for OpenFilm’s Spotlight Series.
