Ochiai graduated from the USC School of Cinematic Arts in 2006 with a BA in production. In 2008, he received his MFA from the American Film Institute Conservatory in directing. To date, Ochiai has made more than 30 short films, commercials, and music videos including “Half Kenneth” which won the Jury Prize from the Directors Guild of America and the Best Short Film Award at the Short Shorts Film Festival. “Tiger Mask” is his first feature film, which is based on a Japanese legendary comic book series and produced by Toshiaki Nakazawa, producer from an Oscar(R)-winning film Departures.
