Who is Santiago Montenegro Perini?
BIO
I am a Visual Artist focused on filmmaking, editing, and color grading.
My work has premiered at film festivals such as SUNDANCE, IDFA, SXSW, MIDBO, Bogoshorts, among others.
I am passionate about traveling and being in constant movement, finding great stories, and turning them into great films. I have had the experience of traveling to many places in the world, experiencing new cultures, and seeing them through my lens.
I have experience in pre-production, production, and post-production working on several types of projects (fiction, documentary, commercial, institutional and experimental video), working for award-winning film production companies, and as a freelance.
I am a Master Trainer in Davinci Resolve, Certified User in Avid Media Composer, and an expert user in FCPX and Premiere Pro. I am also passionate about teaching and I have had the opportunity to teach on several occasions.
I am available to work remotely from anywhere in the world.
