Biography
Daniel Scheinert is half of the Daniels, an American filmmaking duo known for music videos and feature films that blur genre boundaries. Born June 7, 1987, in the US, Scheinert and collaborator Daniel Kwan began their career directing music videos, including Grammy-nominated work for Foster the People's "Houdini" (2012) and DJ Snake and Lil Jon's "Turn Down for What" (2013). They wrote and directed the absurdist comedy-drama Swiss Army Man (2016), followed by Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022), which became A24's then-highest-grossing film and won the duo multiple awards, including Academy Awards for Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Original Screenplay. As a screenwriter and director, Scheinert works in a distinctly visual, genre-defying mode. Born under Gemini, he embodies the sign's curiosity and duality—his films constantly shift tone, scale, and reality. As a Life Path 11, Scheinert channels the number's association with vision and unconventional thinking, channeling both technical precision and surreal imagination into filmmaking that challenges narrative convention.
