CURRENT MISSION

Get to Camerimage festival, to continue my educacion as a cinematographer and promote the recent movie we shoot guerrilla style on Guatemala City, find contacts for internacional distribution.

ABOUT ME

A guy that enjoys life, finding his way through it. Study three years in the cinema international school in Cuba. There I meet people like me, that love cinema and want to live it 24/7, so after graduating we went to Guatemala city to shot our first feature film guerrilla style, low budget, like we say, "with guts and passion" and the weapons the time in cuba make us realize we have, to believe in what we do and give everything we have to get it done.

Now I'm traveling to know this part of the world, shear ideas, work with people around here and promote the movie to get to the final step of showing it on theaters. Capturing every moment i can, on a picture, on video or on my memory for inspiration. Working on a documentary to shot when i go back to Mexico.

PHILOSOPHY

I love life, but the most i love is to be able to do what i love.
