Having traveled to 41 states in the U.S. and 37 countries all over the world, RAW finds his greatest passion in making movies. Bare Bones International Independent Film Festival (one of the Best Truly Independent Film Festivals, Ultimate Film Festival Survival Guide) recently declared his feature directorial debut “Carma” Best Picture and Ray Arthur Wang Indie Auteur of the Year. “Wang is a director to watch,” claims Film Threat.

A pioneer in the convergence of Hollywood and the Internet, RAW recently signed a historical distribution deal with FastMovie.tv and Nirvana Woman. Taken from conception to distribution entirely digitally, the supernatural thriller “Carma” is the first feature film in history distributed exclusively online via DVD-quality pay-per-view.

Now, RAW is a producer on award-winning director Michealene Cristini Risley’s documentary “Tapestries of Hope,” the shocking story about the rape and sexual abuse against thousands of women, particularly baby girls of Zimbabwe. From the team that was invited to the Sundance Producers Conference in August 2006.
