Sobre nosotros

Hi, I am from Lima, Perú, where I studied filmmaking, and worked as a photojournalist and writer for different magazines and newspapers. I have published different articles about shamanism and sacred places in magazines in South America, USA, and Europe.

In 2000 I moved to the USA where I studied Documentary Production at UCLA and Filmmaking at LACC in Los Angeles, Ca. I have also worked as a photo editor for a bilingual newspaper in Burbank, Ca. and I am currently running my production company, Martell Media Productions in Los Angeles and Condor International Films in Lima, Perú.

I have completed two documentaries “Magic Healers of Los Angeles” and “Ayahuasca the Sacred Vine”. Now I'm in the developments of my first international feature “Lima Nevada”, a dark comedy, a story of Love, Witchcraft, and Aliens, that will be filmed this year between Lima (Peru) and Los Angeles.

When I started to work on the script, Lima Nevada, many people told me that it was going to be difficult to film a dark comedy movie about aliens and witchcraft between Peru and Nevada, but what those people don’t understand is the ancient country of Peru and USA share a commonality with the supernatural realm of witchcraft and UFO contacts, especially in America that is the country in the world with more alien activity.

Combining all the elements from Peru with the famous Area 51 in Nevada makes this film very powerful and unique where it can attract an audience from around the world that are interested in aliens and esoteric mysteries. “Lima Nevada” is being created with the idea that people from different worlds and backgrounds can connect in a magical way and bring audiences that can understand that in these times with the internet and social media the world is becoming one. With this powerful connection in the visual world of filmmaking, it continues to fuel my passion for sharing this project.
