In this short film, created in partnership with Jim Brady from Brady Architectural Photography, we explore the San Elijo Lagoon Pedestrian Bridge, a masterpiece of Safdie Rabines Architects. Set against the backdrop of Cardiff, CA, and seamlessly integrated with Interstate 5, the film showcases the bridge as a vital connector of trails and a symbol of innovative design. It emphasizes the bridge's role in enhancing the natural and scenic beauty of the San Diego coast. This visual narrative, enriched by Brady's expert direction of photography, captures the essence of the bridge as a harmonious blend of architecture and nature.

As the filmmaker behind this documentary, I journeyed deep into the Peruvian Amazon to authentically capture the transformative experiences surrounding Ayahuasca ceremonies. My role involved extensive pre-production planning, remote-location filming, and careful collaboration with local shamans and participants to ensure respectful storytelling. Through compelling visuals, intimate interviews, and thoughtful editing, I aimed to break down misconceptions, honestly portray profound moments of personal growth, and convey the authentic power of this ancient healing practice.

In this brand film, created in partnership with San Diego Refugee Tutoring (SDRT), we delve into the heart of an organization dedicated to empowering students from refugee backgrounds. Documenting a year’s worth of impactful events and behind-the-scenes moments, the film weaves together interviews with passionate volunteers and the inspiring individuals benefiting from SDRT’s programs. Released on Giving Tuesday, this 3-minute brand film, accompanied by 30-second social media cutdowns, highlights SDRT’s mission to transform lives through education and mentorship. Designed to raise awareness, attract new volunteers, and secure vital funding, this visual narrative celebrates the resilience of the students and the community that uplifts them. SDRT was thrilled with the final product, which they called a powerful tool to amplify their story and purpose.
