about (me)
Greetings and welcome to the diverse tapestry of my visual storytelling journey. As a first-generation immigrant hailing from the vibrant city of Lima, Peru, I draw upon my rich cultural heritage to shape films, videos, and mixed media projects that resonate with individuals from all walks of life. With over two decades immersed in the world of film and video production, I've not only refined my craft but developed a style that is both distinctive and culturally versatile.
My commitment to storytelling is deeply rooted in the exploration of the diverse facets of the human experience through the lens of the camera. It's a personal and professional passion that has seen recognition, with my short films earning prestigious awards and my videos featured in notable spaces, including Adweek. Notably, my feature documentary has been highlighted on NPR's Think Out Loud, further emphasizing its multicultural resonance.
Currently, I'm eagerly working on my first feature film—a project infused with cultural richness and diverse perspectives that I am excited to share with audiences soon.
Whether crafting a documentary, narrative film, or commercial endeavor, my steadfast goal remains the same: to weave narratives that are not only compelling and unique but also reflective of the multicultural tapestry that defines our world. Using the mediums of video, film, and mixed media, I strive to capture the essence of the human experience and extend an invitation for audiences to perceive the world through a lens of cultural diversity.
Thank you for taking the time to explore my journey and body of work. I am genuinely thrilled about the opportunity to share my multicultural stories with you and contribute to a more inclusive narrative through the art of visual storytelling.
Warm regards,
Tony Altamirano
