filmography
Sound Mixer
Shot by the talented cinematographer Jose Antonio Partida, who documented it for a film class at what used to be Santa Fe University of Art and Design.
Following Bob Miller, a crazy guy on an adventure. As a sound mixer, I recorded the soundtrack of this short film. Although I am credited as a producer, I hardly produced anything in this short film.
1st Assistant Camera
Still unreleased. Peace River is the first feature I got to work on thoroughly as 1st Camera Assistant. A heartwarming Christian / Faith film that embraces the topics of love, war, and cowboys. Mainly shot in the area of Cimarron NM, by faith Cinematographer and Director Douglas Veil.
Art Department Assistant
Director Devon Ludlow is a creative mad man, master puppeteer, dancer, artist, etc, you name it. This man does anything he proposes and goes far beyond. I had the opportunity of working with him in his third episode of "The love that would not die". It was here where I learned how to work with absolutely no budget and recognized the power that a community of creative artists can do.
Camera Man
Traveled to Ruidoso NM, and lodged for a couple of days to shoot this commercial. The Belgian Malinois at the Ruidoso Malinois are specialized K9 trained dogs. They are insanely ferocious and smart. They track and protect effectively against home invasion, car hijacking, weapon disarming.
Contrary to common belief, these dogs can be very friendly as well, behaving outstandingly in public and among children.
Producer
"Andressa" - Student Short Film was written and directed by Jose Antonio Partida. Shot in a party house in Santa Fe, NM around 2017. Currently being shown at Independent Film Festivals around the world.
Production Designer
"Sawyer" - Student short film with an eight thousand dollar budget and a very creative team. We made it work to make the script portray on the screen as best as possible. I am especially proud of this project due to the sweat, pain, and sleepless nights I went through to make it happen.
COSTUME Department Assistant
I had the opportunity to work on the Netflix movie by the Coen Brothers called " The Ballad of Buster Scruggs", shot mostly in New Mexico. Under the umbrella of award-winning Costume Designer Mary Zophres, it was the first big blockbuster movie I got my hands on. The Costume department was very proud of my work. I was originally only hired for two weeks and ended working for the rest of the show which lasted about three months.
Assistant Director
Worked with New Mexico's infamous small budget video producer and director Pablo Wildman. We filmed and traveled through five different states to create " I am Cheo". It took us three weeks to shoot this beautiful inspirational short for the Hispanic Access Foundation. You can see me in a split of a second in front of the Santa Monica Boardwalk.
Production Designer
Student Short film by Alejandra Castro, about a mother and daughter undergoing the struggles of being Latino immigrants in Arizona. Shot in Santa Fe, NM. This was my first role as a Production Designer. It really woke my interest towards the craft. Remains unreleased to the public, currently being shown at film festivals around the world.
Grip & Electric
An interesting experimental student short film about a woman not being able to cope with her strange reality. Directed by Rio Finnegan and Produced by my best friend Jose Antonio Partida.
My participation in this short was minimal as a grip but none the less, an interesting project I had the pleasure to work on.
