Producer/Director
Juan A Mas is a Colombian/Cuban Producer and Director entrenched in the indie world. He worked up the ranks of Roger Corman Studio as an AD and UPM in Los Angeles, becoming a nuts and bolts producer; then, job opportunities allowed him to work as a producer and Director for several years abroad. Juan has also worked all over the United States in varied budget sizes as a Directors Guild of America member for features, mini-series, and television. He is a passionate storyteller who loves to combine a kinetic visual style with vibrant characters and the gritty truth of real life. When not on set, Juan directs and produces theater in Spokane and Seattle. He also volunteers on boards that focus on the growth of the art community and creative economy locally and across the state of Washington. He is most proud of being a dad of 3 amazing young adults.
