DP Vitaly Bokser continues his interview with Carlos Almonte about his current career editing and now directing commercials, music videos and shorts.
Carlos has worked with filmmakers like Error Morris (Think) to huge name talent like Tom Hanks (Boatlift Doc). So for those links check below. He has always been on both sides of the creative process – whether right by the camera as a director or even a cinematographer or in post by an editing system. In all that time he has always been telling stories.
I have known Carlos for a long time and he is definitely a driven, strong willed, full of vision director and editor, and I do absolutely look forward to seeing what he can accomplish in the years to come. So Carlos if you’re reading this – make a feature!
