Ousama Rawi started his career in cinematography in the U.K. shooting newsreels for TV, but soon went freelance and began shooting commercials and feature films out of London. A trip to Canada to shoot a U.K./Canadian co-production changed his life when a commercial production company there offered him a 12-month contract. He went and stayed for almost 12 years. By 1994, he decided to move back into long-form and moved to Los Angeles. His credits include Avenging Angelo, Vinegar Hill, Parting Shots and Family Sins.
