I'm a Venezuelan-Canadian film director, producer, writer, entrepreneur and punk rock musician.

To date I have directed and produced 6 short films and 5 animated short films under my company spitshineflicks.com, and worked for over 100 film, TV and music video productions over the past four years as Production Designer, Key Grip, Gaffer, Cinematographer and 1st AD.

My latest short film "Afternoon at Gudrun" (Romantic Comedy, 35mm/RedMX, 6min) is currently in post-production - you can follow its progress at its Facebook page facebook.com/afternoonatgudrun

I will produce and direct my debut feature length film on the Summer 2012, based on my award winning (Reel13 / PBS, New York 2011) short film "Faith and Conviction" (vimeo.com/23431283). I also have a number of other films in various stages of development, with open opportunities for involvement.

Currently, I am co-producing dir. Erick Boychuk's debut feature film, a teen comedy titled "The Cover-Up", slated to go to camera on April 15, 2012. Contact me for private placements and executive opportunities.

In TV animation, I have done work for Big Bad Boo Cartoons, Atomic Cartoons, AKA Cartoons, The National Film Board of Canada, The Beijing Urban Development Group and The Malaysian Sultan of Pahang, among others.
