Work

Razan wrote, directed, and produced over sixty field pieces including segments in Moscow, Berlin, Jordan, Puerto Rico, Iraq, Djbouti, Hong Kong, and Rwanda for Samantha Bee. All of them were obviously VERY funny, but here are some favorites: M y Errol Morris inspired ten minute feature documentary film on Reality Winner, Sam and Busy Phillips do a reproductive justice themed Escape Room (note: it is VERY hard to design an escape room?!) Full Frontal’s First Trump Positive Field Piece (in Iraq!), Gamify The Midterms Part 1 & Part 2, Deep Fakes, This American Trash, a piece about Voter Suppression starring Ashley Nicole Black and Stacey Abrams and with a Sarah Koenig cameo, and this scripted bit launching Full Frontal’s second game! Oh, and here are some pandemic field pieces I made featuring Kamala Harris, Elizabeth Warren and Ayanna Pressley. Or click the photo to see all of the pieces Razan has produced for the show.
